本篇論文研究中,我們以微波電漿輔助化學汽相沉積法,成長超微晶奈米鑽石薄膜並製作超微晶奈米鑽石平面場發射元件。我們使用不同的粉末組成來超音波震盪成核,並探討其鑽石薄膜成長機制與電子場發射特性。我們在實驗中發現,適當比例混合的奈米鑽石粉末、鈦金屬粉末,可以提升鑽石薄膜的均勻度,並且得到很小的薄膜厚度,而其電子場發射特性也較佳。
在超微晶奈米鑽石平面場發射元件的製作上,我們首先利用犧牲層結構來形成,並討論不同幾何結構對元件場發射特性的影響。我們使元件達到一個很小的電極間距(gap ~1 □m),希望得到很低的起始電壓,並藉由增加陰極尖端的數量和降低陰極之間的間距,來提昇電流大小和電流密度。
我們也選用氧電漿蝕刻與選區成長等製程來製作超微晶奈米鑽石平面場發射元件,並探討這三種不同製程對元件的電子場發射特性之影響。希望得到一個簡單有效的製程,並且具有相同優良的電子場發射特性。
Ultra Nano Crystalline Diamond (UNCD) films and lateral emitters comprising UNCD were grown by using microwave plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (MPCVD). We have investigated and discussed about how to improve the nucleation of UNCD films as well as the field emission properties of UNCD films and lateral emitters made by UNCD. Experiments were carried out with different powder composition to enhance ultrasonication nucleation and also studied the effects on the electric filed emission properties. We have found that the Ti and NCD mixed powder in methanol solution enhanced the morphology of the UNCD film with very small thickness (<200 nm) and its field emission property was also better than the other nucleation methods.
To fabricate the UNCD lateral emitter, we have used sacrificial layer process and investigated the effect of geometric changes on the field emission properties. Lateral emitter with very small gap between the electrodes was fabricated (< 2 □m) with markedly reduced turn-on voltage. The increase in the number of tips and reduce in the cathode to cathode distance were also made in practice to increase the current density.
Finally, we have used three different fabrication processes to fabricate the lateral emitter and studied its effect on the field emission properties. Efforts have been made to find an easy and convenient process to fabricate the UNCD lateral emitter with the field emission properties as best as possible.
