超低开启电场SiC场发射阴极材料

SiC, as one of the third generation wide bandgap semiconductor families with a series of superior physical performances, is considered as the excellent candidate for the field emission cathodes. However, its practical applications still rely on the further enhanced field emission properties such as obtaining a lower turn on field. In the present work, directed by the exploration of novel SiC field emission cathode materials with high performace, we will firstly realize the controlled growth and doping of the SiC nanoneedle arrays via pyrolysis of polymeric precursors, by precisely tailoring the experimental parameters. Subsequently, the resultant SiC nanoarrays will be surface decorated by the noncompact metal nanoparticles with uniform distributions via the technique of electron-bean vapor deposition with the optimized experimental parameters. The as-fabricated SiC nanoneedle arrays with the metal nanoparticle decorations might take advantage of local field enhancement effect, increasing the electron emission cites and tailoring the energy band together, which lead to the collaborative enhancement of the electron emission ability, and thus result in the significant improvement of their field emission properties. This project will be carried out systematically to characterize the electron emission performance of SiC nanoneeld arrays, clarify and optimize the relationship between their structures and the field emission properties, and disclose the mechanism of the electron emission. Current work might put forward the exploration of SiC field emission cathodes with ultra low turn on fields, and could provide some scientific data and basic theories for their potential applications.
