我們利用原子力顯微術(atomic force microscopy, AFM),以機械力微影,在PMMA薄膜上製作奈米圖樣,然後鍍上金屬膜,再剝除(lift off)高分子膜,便完成金屬奈米線。此外以探針切割奈米線,便形成奈米電極,並分析其電傳導特性。
在機械力微影,以探針在50 nm厚的PMMA,作出溝槽,接著先後鍍上2 nm與22 nm的金與銅,在丙酮中完成剝除程序可得到60 nm寬跟24 nm高的金屬奈米線。這些金屬奈米線的I-V曲線符合歐姆定律,但它的導電率比塊材小了26倍。我們認為這是由於材料特性而非尺寸效應引起。接著以探針切割金屬奈米線,可作出奈米缺口或極細接面,並得到間隙50 nm的奈米電極。
對奈米電極施加0.9 V電壓可量到穿隧電流;但施加更大的電壓,例如:2 V,金屬原子會被吸引並橋接在電極間形成原子級接面。施加0.3 V以電致遷移破壞這個接面可得到原子級的缺口。當金屬線上最細的部分被切到只剩幾個原子,電導值會呈階梯狀下降。利用電致遷移處理可得到分子尺度的缺口。
We report the fabrication of metallic nanowires and nanoelectrodes by atomic force microscopy (AFM). Nanopatterns are first created on a PMMA film by force lithography. By further metal film coating and lift off processes, metallic nanowires are constructed. In additional, nanoelectrodes can be produced by direct cutting a nanowire with the AFM tip. Electrical properties of the nanoelectrodes have also been explored.
A 50 nm thick PMMA coated on a silicon oxide substrate is first scratch by the AFM tip to create grooves. Gold and copper films with thicknesses of 2 and 22 nm, respectively, are evaporated onto the sample subsequently. Metallic nanowires with 60 nm in width and 24 nm in height are obtained after lift off. The I-V curve of a nanowire follows Ohm’s law, but its conductance is less 26 times than bulk materials. We consider that the reduction of conductance is due to change of material properties rather than the size effect. Nanoelectrodes with a gap of around 50 nm are then created by directing a nanowire with the AFM tip.
By applying a voltage of 0.9 V between the electrodes, the tunneling current is observed. If the voltage is lager, e.g. 2 V, the atoms of the electrodes will be attracted between two electrodes and form an atomic scale junction. This junction will break again by applying 0.3 V due to electromigration and form an atomic scale gap. When the finest point of the nanowire is reduced to a number of atoms, the conductance decreases stepwise.
