Ballistic Electron Emission Microscopy/Spectroscopy on Au/Titanylphthalocyanine/GaAs Heterostructures
In this article Au/titanylphthalocyanine/GaAs diodes incorporating ultra smooth thin films of the archetypal organic semiconductor titanylphthalocyanine (TiOPc) were investigated by Ballistic Electron Emission Microscopy/Spectroscopy (BEEM/S). Analyzing the BEEM spectra, we find that the TiOPc increases the BEEM threshold voltage compared to reference Au/GaAs diodes. From BEEM images taken we c...
متن کاملField Emission Microscopy, Spectroscopy,Scanning Electron Microscopy and Field Emission Phenomena from Graphene-like Structures
The presented paper gives a general overview of studies of field emission from carbon nanoclusters. The special attention has been given to the study of emission processes in the strong and super strong electric fields from graphene-like structures. The direct experiments have confirmed the phenomena of the low threshold field emission and explosive emission from carbon nanoclusters. Experiment...
متن کاملComposite electrode of carbon nanotubes and vitreous carbon for electron field emission
In this work, the electron field emission behaviour of electrodes formed by carbon nanotubes CNTs grown onto monolithic vitreous carbon VCarbon substrates with microcavities is presented. Scanning electron microscopy was used to characterize the microstructure of the films. Tungsten probes, stainless steel sphere, and phosphor electrodes were employed in the electron field emission study. The C...
متن کاملElectron holography of field-emitting carbon nanotubes.
Electron holography performed in situ inside a high resolution transmission electron microscope has been used to determine the magnitude and spatial distribution of the electric field surrounding individual field-emitting carbon nanotubes. The electric field (and hence the associated field emission current) is concentrated precisely at the tips of the nanotubes and not at other nanotube defects...
متن کاملCarbon Based Electronic Materials: Applications in Electron Field Emission
The influence of the different types of bonding present in a range of carbon based materials is discussed as a precursor to describing the field emission characteristics of carbon cold cathode materials. Some of the controlling factors which govern electron emission from carbon based cathodes are discussed. It is shown that from disordered carbon films the interplay between the clustered sp 2 p...
