suggest ways in which materials may be modified by microencapsulation and irradiation.

We report core-level and valence-band X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and carbon [
]K near-edge X-ray-absorptionfine structure spectroscopy (NEXAFS) results of plasma-polymerized C60. In comparison with evaporated C60 the C 1s peak is broader and asymmetric for the C60 polymer and its shake-up satellites diminished. Furthermore, the features of the valence-band as well as the features of
the π* antibonding orbitals of the C60 polymer are broader and reduced in intensity. Changes in the electronic structure are attributed to the polymerization of
C60, the post-plasma functionalization of the surface by oxygen after exposure to atmosphere, and the occurrence of amorphous
carbon.

thickness, ion energy, and ion dose. The results provide strong corroborative evidence for the endohedral nature of the Li-containing
species and also clearly indicate the prescence of Li2@C60 in the films. The binding energy in these films is significantly larger than in pure C60 films and evidence of degradation of the fullerenes is seen at high ion energies and/or large ion doses.

C60 layers on polycrystalline Ag and Au are studied by photoelectron spectroscopy. At these metal/C60 interfaces an electron transfer occurs from the metal to the lowest unoccupied orbital of C60. We found in the case of the polycrystalline Ag/C60 interface a dipolar layer with its associated electric field in the direction corresponding to the charge transfer, so pointing
from the substrate to the adsorbent. Yet, at the Au/C60 interface we observed an overall electric field pointing from C60 towards the metal. We discuss our observations in terms of charge transfer, screening and hybridization effects and propose
the occurrence of a hybridization mechanism similar to back-bonding at the Au/C60 interface. We show that the alignment of energy levels at the metal/C60 interface cannot simply be deduced using the metal workfunction and the frontier orbitals of C60, including screening effects, since hybridization effects may strongly alter the interfacial energy level structure. Our
experimental findings on the polycrystalline metal/C60 interfaces indicate an at-most weak dependence of the Fermi level of the C60 overlayer on the workfunction of the polycrystalline metal substrate. These interfaces are found in donor–acceptor-based
organic photovoltaic devices and our results may help to understand the electrical characteristics of these devices.

3 , BC2N, and C3N4. These studies have been carried out using a total-energy, non-orthogonal, tight-binding parametrisation which is shown to
provide results in good agreement both with calculations using higher levels of theory and the available experimental data.
Our results predict that of all types of nanotubes considered, carbon nanotubes have the highest Young’s modulus. We have
considered tubes of different diameters, ranging from 0.5 to 2 nm, and find that in the limit of large diameters the mechanical
properties of nanotubes approach those of the corresponding flat graphene-like sheets.

Multishell conduction in multiwalled carbon nanotubes 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The full electronic complexity of multiwalled carbon nanotubes may be explored by sequentially removing individual carbon
shells. This technique is employed to directly measure the number of shells contributing to conduction at room temperature,
as well as the contribution of each shell to the overall conductance. By exploring the gate dependence of the conductance,
the random alternation between semiconducting and metallic shells can also be observed.

Plasma-polymerized C60 thin films were investigated in the form of a field effect transistor (FET) structure. In the FET device, the C60 polymer acts as a p-type semiconductor, whereas C60 is an n-type semiconductor. Its conduction mechanism can be described as due to variable range hopping. As a sensing device,
the C60 polymer can behave as a gas sensor for electrophoric gases and can also be operated as a photo-sensing device in air.

We have synthesized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) using a DC arc discharge method under organic molecular atmospheres.
This method allows us to synthesize about five times more MWNTs than are synthesized using the usual arc discharge method,
using discharge conditions of 100 A and 20 V. We have examined the synthetic yield of MWNTs at various pressures under different
organic atmospheres. The yield of MWNTs increases with the number of carbon atoms in the organic molecule.

We report a new effect of ion irradiation on
C60 thin films:
C60 thin films irradiated with 7-MeV
C2+ ions show resistance to
photopolymerization. The resistance increases with increasing
ion fluence of irradiation. The effect is qualitatively
explained by the fact that the number of a
C60 pair satisfying the topochemical
requirement for photochemical reaction in solids decreases by
destruction of C60 molecules accompanied
by lattice disorder. 相似文献

Carbon nanomaterials seem to be most attractive because of their fascinating features. Carbon nanotubes emerged recently as
unique nanostructures with remarkable mechanical and electronic properties. Future applications will require a fabrication
method capable of producing uniform carbon nanotubes with well-defined and controllable reproducibility of their properties.
In this review, recent results addressing rational and efficient methods to obtain aligned arrays of these one-dimensional
carbon nanomaterials will be discussed.

We report equilibrium electric resistance R and tunneling spectroscopy (dI/dV)measurements obtained on single multi-wall nanotubes
contacted by four metallic Au fingers from above. At low temperature quantum interference phenomena dominate the magnetoresistance.
The phase-coherence (lφ)and elastic-scattering lengths (le)are deduced. Because le is of order of the circumference of the nanotubes, transport is quasi-ballistic. This result is supported by a dI/dV spectrum
which is in good agreement with the density of states (DOS) due to the one-dimensional subbands expected for a perfect single-wall
tube. As a function of temperature T the resistance increases on decreasing T and saturates at ≈1–10 Kfor all measured nanotubes.
R(T) cannot be related to the energy-dependent DOS of graphene but is mainly caused by interaction and interference effects.
On a relatively small voltage scale of the order ≈10 meV, a pseudogap is observed in dI/dV which agrees with Luttinger-liquid
theories for nanotubes. Because we have used quantum diffusion based on Fermi-liquid as well as Luttinger-liquid theory in
trying to understand our results, a large fraction of this paper is devoted to a careful discussion of all our results.

High-quality single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) are synthesized by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of methane on silicon-dioxide
substrates at controlled locations using patterned catalytic islands. With the synthesized nanotube chips, microfabrication
techniques are used to reliably contact individual SWNTs and obtain low contact resistance. The combined chemical synthesis
and microfabrication approaches enable systematic characterization of electron transport properties of a large number of individual
SWNTs. Results of electrical properties of representative semiconducting and metallic SWNTs are presented. The lowest two-terminal
resistance for individual metallic SWNTs (≈5 μm long) is ≈16.5 kΩ measured at 4.2 K.

Self-assembly pyrolytic routes to large arrays (<2.5 cm2) of aligned CNx nanotubes (15–80 nm OD and <100 μm in length) are presented. The method involves the thermolysis of ferrocene/melamine mixtures
(5:95) at 900–1000 °C in the presence of Ar. Electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) reveals that the N content varies from
2–10%, and can be bonded to C in two different fashions (double-bonded and triple-bonded nitrogen). The electronic densities
of states (DOS) of these CNx nanotubes, using scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS), are presented. The doped nanotubes exhibit strong features in the
conduction band close to the Fermi level (0.18 eV). Using tight-binding and ab initio calculations, we confirm that pyridine-like
(double-bonded) N is responsible for introducing donor states close to the Fermi Level. These electron-rich structures are
the first example of n-type nanotubes. Finally, it will be shown that moderate electron irradiation at 700–800 °C is capable
of coalescing single-walled nanotubes (SWNTs). The process has also been studied using tight-binding molecular dynamics (TBMD).
Vacancies induce the coalescence via a zipper-like mechanism, which has also been observed experimentally. These vacancies
trigger the organization of atoms on the tube lattices within adjacent tubes. These results pave the way to the fabrication
of nanotube heterojunctions, robust composites, contacts, nanocircuits and strong 3D composites using N-doped tubes as well
as SWNTs.

The pressure dependence of the high-energy Raman modes in single- and multi-walled carbon nanotubes was measured in the range
0–10 GPa. We found the pressure coefficient to be linear in both materials but 25% smaller in MWNT. Given that the curvature
effects on vibrational properties of the rolled-up graphene sheets are small, we can explain this difference simply with elasticity
theory.

Scanning tunneling microscopy of carbon nanotubes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

This article reports on the application of scanning tunneling microscopy for the study of surface structures and electronic
properties of carbon nanotubes. Geometric effects resulting from the cylindrical shape of the tubes as well as the particular
band structure of the graphitic crystal lattice can lead to a variety of contrast patterns. On the atomic scale, it is sometimes
possible to see the full honeycomb lattice structure but often different structures are observed. Besides distortions caused
by tip–sample interactions, we find that a complex superstructure superimposed on the simple atomic contrast pattern arises
from elastic scattering of the Fermi states at defects or impurities. From a careful analysis of high-resolution images it
is possible to extract information about elastic strain of individual tubes. A new combination of scanning tunneling and scanning
force microscopy enables near-atomic point resolution of the force signal the tubes can be identified without the need of
a conducting substrate. This imaging mode is a crucial step for the characterization of electronic devices based on individual
single-wall tubes. This mode can be further enhanced by the use of single-walled tubes as probe tips.

Field emission from carbon nanotubes: perspectives for applications and clues to the emission mechanism 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15

We report on the extensive characterization of carbon nanotube electron field emitters. We studied the emission behavior of
single-wall, closed and opened arc-discharge multi-wall, and catalytically grown multi-wall nanotubes, as single emitters
and in film form. The nanotube field emitters show excellent field emission properties, but significant differences were observed
between the different types of nanotubes. To obtain good performances as well as long emitter lifetimes, the nanotubes should
be multi-walled and have closed, well-ordered tips. Complementary results such as energy distribution and luminescence induced
by the field emission give further precious indications on the field emission mechanism. The large field amplification factor,
arising from the small radius of curvature of the nanotube tips, is partly responsible for the good emission characteristics.
Additional evidence however shows that the density of states at the tip is non-metallic, appearing in the form of localized
states with well-defined energy levels.

The semiconductive perovskite-type oxide SrFeO3-x (x<0.16) (SFO) thin films have been directly fabricated on (001)SrTiO3 and (001)LaAlO3 single crystal substrates by pulsed laser deposition(PLD) under high oxygen partial pressure of 100 Pa. The SFO thin films
were (110) oriented. The x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis showed that the surface of SFO thin film has strong
gas absorption capability. The resistance versus temperature has been measured in the temperature range from 77 K to 300 K.
The SFO thin film showed typical semiconductive property. Dependence of resistance of SFO thin film on oxygen pressure was
measured and result showed that the SFO thin film had better oxygen sensitive property.
