Field Emission Characteristics of the Structure of Vertically Aligned Carbon Nanotube Bundles
In this study, we performed thermal chemical vapor deposition for growing vertically aligned carbon nanotube (VACNT) bundles for a field emitter and applied photolithography for defining the arrangement pattern to simultaneously compare square and hexagonal arrangements by using two ratios of the interbundle distance to the bundle height (R) of field emitters. The hexagon arrangement with R = 2...
متن کاملPatterned growth of carbon nanotubes over vertically aligned silicon nanowire bundles for achieving uniform field emission
A fabrication strategy is proposed to enable precise coverage of as-grown carbon nanotube (CNT) mats atop vertically aligned silicon nanowire (VA-SiNW) bundles in order to realize a uniform bundle array of CNT-SiNW heterojunctions over a large sample area. No obvious electrical degradation of as-fabricated SiNWs is observed according to the measured current-voltage characteristic of a two-termi...
متن کاملGrowth and field emission properties of vertically aligned carbon nanofibers
Vertically aligned carbon nanofibers sVACNFsd were synthesized on Ni-coated Si substrates using a dc plasma-enhanced chemical-vapor deposition system. The size of the Ni islands used as catalyst to grow the VACNFs was formed by both thermal annealing and laser processing on thin metal layers. It was observed that the diameter of the carbon nanofibers is strongly dependent on the initial Ni isla...
متن کاملHigh density, vertically-aligned carbon nanotube membranes.
A method is presented to prepare high-density, vertically aligned carbon nanotube (VA-CNT) membranes. The CNT arrays were prepared by chemical vapor deposition (CVD), and the arrays were collapsed into dense membranes by capillary-forces due to solvent evaporation. The average space between the CNTs after shrinkage was approximately 3 nm, which is comparable to the pore size of the CNTs. Thus, ...
متن کاملField emission vacuum power switch using vertically aligned carbon nanotubes
A field emission vacuum switch using vertically aligned carbon nanotubes grown by a direct current plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition is reported. Cathodes with optimized field emission properties were evaluated in diode configuration as a test vehicle for the construction of a vacuum power three terminal triode device. Limiting factors such as space charge effects involved with high cur...
