論文摘要
本研究主要以硬陽極氧化鋁之背部阻障層作為模板,利用熱燈絲化學氣相沉積法成長高均勻性之鑽石奈米針尖陣列,並藉由不同規格之模板,製作出不同密度之針尖間距,經由場發射測試後之特性,討論各種針尖密度、間距與高度的比值於場發射上的表現及場遮蔽效應之影響。在研究過程中以掃描式電子顯微鏡檢觀察測試片表面形貌、原子力顯微鏡量測試片針尖高度、拉曼光譜儀檢測鑽石特性及以場發射量測儀檢測鑽石針尖陣列場發射性質。
研究中利用硬陽極氧化鋁之阻障層為模板,相較於以孔洞陣列製作的結構,不但高度與規則度更為一致,也較能形成針尖狀。研究中利用聚乙烯亞胺附著鑽石顆粒之輔助成核前處理法,製作三角錐形針尖,其平均尖端半徑約為15~27奈米,平均高度約為18~120奈米,平均最低針尖間距介於50~205奈米之間。
本研究實驗參數之結果顯示,平均針尖間距為50 nm時,具有最佳的間距與高度比值2.8,除了具有最高發射點密度外,也最能避免場遮蔽效應的影響,經鑽石內摻入氮後,成功獲得本研究之最低起始電場2.4 V/μm及最大場發射電流密度2523 μA/cm2,也證實這種製作方法不但經濟便宜、簡單迅速,其在場發射性能的表現也極為優越。
Abstract
Patterned arrays of diamond nano-tips were grown on the back barrier side of an anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) template by hot-filament chemical vapor deposition (HFCVD) system. Hard anodization method was chosen to fabricate the AAO template of uniform structure arrays and nano diamond particles were adhered onto the AAO template by Polyethylenimine pretreatment to increase the nucleation density of diamond. Different specifications of the templates to produce different heights and pitches of the diamond nano-tips were fabricated. The surface morphology of specimen was observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The quality and field emission properties of nano-tip diamonds were examined by Raman spectroscopy and field emission meter, respectively. The field emission properties of different heights and pitches of diamond nano-tips were discussed to confirm whether the screening effect existed or not in these kinds of diamond nano-tips structures. The tip radius of diamond nano-tips about 15 nm-27 nm, the average height about 18 nm-120 nm, and the average pitch-distance from 50 nm to 205 nm were obtained. The lowest turn-on field of 2.4 V/μm and the highest field emission current density of 2523 μA/cm2 can be obtained, respectively, for the case of the nitrogen doped diamond tips array with pitch-height ratio of 2.8. This kind of diamond nano-tips array seemed no field screening effect exist within these values of pitch-height ratio.
