摘要:

本文报道了在Si(111)衬底上生长的自催化GaAs纳米线的场发射特性。测量是在扫描电子显微镜室中实现的,该室具有纳米控制的钨针尖作为阳极。在Fowler-Nordheim理论的框架下对实验数据进行了分析。我们证明了稳定的电流高达10 $^{-7}$ A发射的单纳米线的尖端,与场增强因子$β$高达112的阳极-阴极距离d=350 nm。实验发现,$β$与阳极-阴极距离呈线性关系,Ga催化剂液滴的存在抑制了纳米线尖端的电流发射。这允许检测来自纳米线侧壁的场发射,其以降低的场增强因子和稳定性发生。这项研究进一步将GaAs技术扩展到真空电子学应用。

英文摘要:

We report observation of field emission from self-catalyzed GaAs nanowires grown on Si (111). The measurements are realized inside a scanning electron microscope chamber with nano-controlled tungsten tip functioning as anode. Experimental data are analyzed in the framework of Fowler-Nordheim theory. We demonstrate stable current up to 10$^{-7}$ A emitted from the tip of single nanowire, with field enhancement factor $β$ up to 112 at anode-cathode distance d=350 nm. A linear dependence of $β$ on the anode-cathode distance is experimentally found. We also show that the presence of a Ga catalyst droplet suppresses the emission of current from the nanowire tip. This allows detection of field emission from the nanowire sidewalls, which occurs with reduced field enhancement factor and stability. This study further extends the GaAs technology to vacuum electronics applications.
