ABSTRACT

Carbon nanowire (CNW)-singlewalled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) networks hybrid films with a large area (~400 mm2) are grown on molybdenum (Mo) layers by microwave plasma chemical vapour deposition system. The Mo layers, which were deposited on Al2O3 ceramic substrates through electron beam evaporation deposition, were pretreated by a laser-grooving (LG) technology. Furthermore, the surface morphology, micro-structure and field emission properties of these samples are characterized by scanning electron microscope, Raman spectra, and field emission I - V measurements. A CNW-SWCNT networks hybrid film was formed in the surface of Mo layer, but the laser etched area (linear pits array area) the distribution of the CNW-SWCNT networks density is lower than the un-etched area CNW-SWCNT networks distribution density. The diameter of the CNWs and SWCNTs, respectively in the 8 - 15 nm and 0.9 - 1.5 nm range, and the length of CNW-SWCNTs ranges from 1 μm to 4 μm. The growth mechanisms of the films were discussed. Effects of LG pretreatment on surface morphologies and microstructure of the hybrid films were investigated. The field electron emission experimental results shown that the ture on field as low as 1.6 V/μm, and a current density of 0.15 mA/cm2 at an electric field of 4.3 V/μm was obtained.

1. Introduction

Since carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were discovered [1], various nano-carbon field electron emission (FE) materials have been extensively studied in recent years for their potential applications such as flat panel displays, high temperature microelectronics and intense electron sources for microwave generation [2]-[10]. But until now, the macroscopic properties of carbon-based film emitter have not yet been completely achieving the level of practical application, therefore, research how to synthesis with all kinds of complicated morphology carbon film and further research carbon film field emission performance is necessary. The nanowire is a new nanostructure, with the diameter of the order of a nanometer (10−9 meters). Recently, nanowires have attracted much attention due to their novel wire structure, unique electrical, optical properties and the potential applications in the fields of optoelectronics [11]-[17] and field emitters [18]-[22]. Carbon nanowire (CNW) as a new type of carbon nanomaterials has aroused the attention of some scholars, and it has been investigated in the synthetic technology and material properties by some researchers [23]-[27]. Moreover, the possibility of synthesizing both SWCNTs and CNWs in the same process has been rarely reported [28] [29].

In this paper, we report the fabrication of a series of larger areas (400 mm2) CNW-single walled CNT (SWCNT) networks hybrid films on Mo coated Al2O3 ceramic substrate by using microwave plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition (MPCVD) technique, and the Mo coated layers was pretreated by a laser-grooving (LG) technique. The surface morphologies and microstructure of the as-deposited CNW-SWCNT networks hybrid films were characterized. It was found that the laser etched area (linear pits array area) the distribution of the CNW-SWCNT networks density is lower than the un-etched area CNW-SWCNT networks distribution density. The CNWs is between 8-15nm in diameter and the diameter of the SWCNTs is about between 0.9 - 1.5 nm, and CNW-SWCNT length is between 1 - 4 μm. FE properties of CNW-SWCNT networks hybrid films were further investigated, and a current density ~0.15 mA/cm2 at an electric field of 4.3 V/μm and a threshold electric field of <1.6 V/μm are obtained.

2. Experimental

In order to gain a rough surface morphology, the Al2O3 ceramic substrates were first polished by Muller, and then they were cleaned in an ultrasonic cleaning machine for 30 min. After that, electron beam deposition system was used solely for Mo deposition on ceramic substrates with high purity (99.99%) metal Mo as deposition target. The thickness of Mo coated layer is 2000 nm controlled by films thickness monitor. Furthermore, Mo films were pretreated by LG technology. The groove width is 50 μm, which wasdesigned by drawing software system. The sputtering current and frequency were given to control the groove depth. The specific parameters used for the LG process are listed in Table 1.

Subsequently we prepared CNW-SWCNT networks hybrid films on these pretreated substrates by MPCVD process under the reaction conditions. The typical parameters used for the CVD process are shown in Table 2.

The surface morphology and microstructure of CNW-SWCNT networks hybrid films deposited on Mo layers were characterized by Raman spectrum, energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). And the field emission properties of CNW-SWCNT hybrid films were tested by the parallel-plate diode structure in an ultra vacuum chamber evacuated to a pressure of 4 × 10−4 Pa with a

turbo-molecular pump. CNW-SWCNT hybrid film and phosphor-coated ZnO:Al/glass were used as a cathode and an anode respectively, which were parallel separated by the mica spacer with a thickness of 100 μm. The current-voltage (I-V) characteristics were recorded by using a high voltage power supply and a digital ammeter. The current density-electric field (J-E) curves and the Fowler-Nordheim (FN) plots were obtained from the recorded I-V data. Field emission images were recorded with a CCD camera to know the distribution of the emitting sites.

3. Results and Discussion

Figure 1 shows Raman spectrums of the CNW-SWCNT networks hybrid networks film deposited on Mo layer. For the CNW-SWCNT networks hybrid film sample, the peak position of the D-band is around 1316 cm−1, which is assigned as A1gD mode, associated with vibrations at defects such as vacancies, grain boundaries, substitution hetero-atoms and impurities [30] [31]. And the peak position of the G band is 1583 cm−1. It confirms that the film contained a significant amount of nano-crystalline graphite phase [32] [33]. The minor peak at 264 cm−1 and 168 cm−1 is the radial breathing mode (RBM) band, which appears only in the SWCNTs, explained by existed SWCNTs in the films. In addition, the 2D peak at 2593 cm−1 is the two-phonon overtone of the D band.

As given by w = 248/d (where w is the Raman shift in cm−1 and d is the diameter of SWCNTs in nm), and depending on the position of RBM, the diameter distribution of the present nanotubes was estimated to be of 0.9 - 1.5 nm [28] [34] [35].

Figure 2 showed FE-SEM images of a CNW-SWCNT hybrid film prepared on the Mo layer taken with different amplifications. Figure 2(b) and Figure 2(c) showed typical FE-SEM images taken from the laser etching area and the un-etching area, respectively. Surface morphology of the sample clearly shows the free growth of nano tubular or nano filamentous networks covered in all of the substrate surface. Because SWCNTs mainly includes sp2-bonded carbon atoms structure, whereas CNWs is composed of a mixture structure of sp2 and sp3 carbon bondings, the SEM and Raman test results fully prove that CNW-SWCNT networks hybrid film was synthesized.

The diameter of the CNWs was typically about 8 - 15 nm, and the length of CNWs or SWCNTs range from 1 μm to 4 μm. But the laser etched area (linear pits array area) the distribution of the CNWs-SWCNTs hybrid networks density is lower than that of the un-etched area, as shown in Figure 2(d) and Figure 2(e).

The growth of carbon film was affected by pretreatments, because the LG pretreatment can destroyed accidented surface topography and formed the line pits array, as showed in Figure 2(a). During the MPCVD deposition process, plasma energy distribution would changed induced by linear pits array formed, thus affect the growth of carbon films. In addition, in the LG process, the portion of chiseled Mo particles was splashed into tiny fragments (powders), and eventually sprinkled on the surface of the remainder area, on which the fluffy structure of tiny Mo powder was formed. All of these tiny powders played the role as catalysts during carbon film formation process. So CNW-SWCNT networks structure was formed owing to action of tiny Mo powder catalysts. In short, fluffy Mo powder works to promote the formation of the CNW-SWCNT networks hybrid

film. Relative to the unetched area, the laser etched area has a small number of tiny Mo powders, this result in the CNW-SWCNT network density exists in the laser etched area is lower than that exists in the un-etched area.

FE characteristics of the CNW-SWCNT networks hybrid films with an area of 400 mm2 were measured. In this study, the threshold E (Eth) was defined as E at which J = 10 μA/cm2. For CNW-SWCNT networks hybrid film samples, Eth = 1.6 V/μm, and a current density of 0.15 mA/cm2 was obtained at an electric field of 4.3 V/μm. Figure 3(a) and Figure 3(b) show, respectively, the J-E curves and F-N plots of CNW-SWCNT networks hybrid film deposited on Mo layer. In low electric field (E < 3.5V/μm), F-N plot is negative slope straight line corresponding to the classical electron tunneling mechanism. Different from the traditional F-N curve, the F-N plots of CNW-SWCNT hybrid films have not a negative slope linear relationship in high electric field (E > 3.5 V/μm). The reason may be in high field electronic transport rate has reached saturation, which makes electrons essentially transition in an instant and conduction band doesn’t have enough electronic supplement, resulting the current is no significant increase.

Figure 4(a) and Figure 4(b) shows the FE images recorded by a CCD camera at macroscopic electric field E = 3.1 V/μm and 4.3 V/μm. The area of the biggest image is about 400 mm2. It is shown that for the samples, at

3.1 V/μm, dozens of emission spots were observed, at 4.3 V/μm the emission spots almost distribute the entire specimen surface, but the FE uniformity is not ideal.

4. Conclusion

CNW-SWCNT networks hybrid films were successfully fabricated on Mo coated Al2O3 ceramic substrates utilizing MPCVD technique (the Mo films substrates were pretreated by the LG technology). CNW-SWCNT networks hybrid films are formed in all of the substrate surface. Growth of carbon films was influenced by unusual microstructure of the substrate and therefore causes different plasma energy distribution. The CNW-SWCNT networks hybrid structure formed is ascribed to fluffy structure of tiny Mo powder splashed in LG pretreatment acted as catalysts. FE characteristics of the CNW-SWCNT networks hybrid films were measured, and the FE current density was 0.15 mA/cm2 at an electric field of 4.3 V/μm and the area of the biggest image is about 400 mm2.
