Abstract

The invention discloses a nanometer silicon film cathode and a manufacturing method thereof. The nanometer silicon film cathode consists of a bottom electrode, a nanocrystalline silicon-containing silicon dioxide layer (nanocrystalline silicon particles are embedded into silicon dioxide) and a top electrode, which are sequentially manufactured on a substrate, wherein the nanocrystalline silicon-containing silicon dioxide layer is prepared by combining a sputtering method with a high-temperature annealing process. In a preparation process of the nanocrystalline silicon-containing silicon dioxide layer, the partial pressure ratio of argon and oxygen, which are introduced into a coating cavity, or the sputtering power of a silicon target and a silicon dioxide target is regulated to control the sizes and density distribution of the nanocrystalline silicon particles in the nanocrystalline silicon-containing silicon dioxide layer to realize the periodically changing layered distribution of the density of the nanocrystalline silicon particles with proper particle sizes in the nanocrystalline silicon-containing silicon dioxide layer. A manufacturing process for the nanometer silicon film cathode is compatible with a silicon microelectronic processing process, and stable electron emission performance is achieved.
