Problems solved by technology

Since the field emission of the carbon nanotube array is mainly concentrated on the edge, if the area of ​​the pattern unit in the carbon nanotube array is too large, the area is wasted
However, if the unit diameter is reduced to a few microns, the orientation of carbon nanotubes will be greatly deteriorated.

Embodiment

[0020] Embodiment, the preparation process of the high-performance grid-mounted carbon nanotube array is as follows:

[0021] (1) First, select a heavily doped silicon wafer as the substrate, wash the silicon wafer in acetone (acetone) and isopropanol (IPA) for two minutes to remove surface organic matter and other impurities, bake to 180°C and keep Two minutes to remove moisture from the surface.

[0022] (2) Then spin-coat a layer of electron beam photoresist on the surface, and harden the film at a temperature of 180°C for 90 seconds.

[0023] (3) The photoresist is photoetched to form a grid pattern, and after development, a photoresist mask with a pattern is prepared.

[0024] (4) Then sputter a catalyst film on the surface of the sample by magnetron sputtering. The catalyst here is composed of two layers of films, the lower layer is an Al film with a thickness of 10nm, and the upper layer is a Fe film with a thickness of 1nm.

[0025] (5) Stripping, the sample is immer...

Abstract

The invention discloses an orientated-growth latticed high-performance carbon nano-tube field emission array, which comprises a conductive substrate and latticed orientated carbon nano-tube arrays grown on the substrate, wherein the carbon nano-tube arrays are distributed into a latticed shape and form an integral structure. By the technical scheme, the structural stability of small-size carbon nano-tube arrays is improved, the edge effect of the carbon nano-tube arrays is enhanced, and then a turn-on electric field and a threshold electric field are reduced to improve the emission current density. The orientated-growth latticed high-performance carbon nano-tube field emission array is suitable for field emission devices having high requirements on current emission performance, such as electron sources in an X ray source, a microwave amplifier, a field emission scanning electron microscope and the like.
