Technical Field
The invention relates to a preparation method of a nano material, in particular to a low-dimensional rare earth boride nano material and a solid phase preparation method thereof.
Background
In the prior art, three methods are used for preparing the low-dimensional rare earth boride nano material.
Using chemical vapor deposition with BCl 3 Gas is used as a boron source to synthesize PrB 6 Nanowire and PrB 6 Nanotube (The synthesis of PrB) 6 nanowires and nanotubes by the self-catalyzed method, center. Required BCl 3 Gases are dangerous chemicals that are harmful to the body when inhaled, taken orally or absorbed through the skin, and can cause chemical burns. This inevitably involves a risk in terms of safety and environmental pollution of people, and increases the cost of raw materials.
By using a hydrothermal synthesis method, respectively using Sm and H 3 BO 3 Mg and I 2 The SmB is obtained by a solid mixture through a plurality of reaction and treatment steps 6 Nanowires (Low temperature Synthesis and electronic transport of biological insulator SmB) 6 nanowires.). However, the product obtained by the method has low density and more process flows, which not only increases the preparation period, but also makes the regulation and control of the morphology and crystallinity of the product more difficult. And the cost of the used Sm is too high, and meanwhile, the Mg powder has very active property and certain potential safety hazard.
LaB etching by using ultraviolet lithography, electron beam deposition combined with electrochemical etching or plasma etching 6 Method for obtaining LaB by using single crystal substrate 6 Single crystal nanocone arrays (Field emission characteristics of single crystal LaB) 6 field entities organized by electrochemical interaction method). This method uses LaB on the one hand 6 The single crystal is used as a substrate, so that the cost of raw materials is high; on the other hand, the electrochemical etching has specific requirements and selectivity for a substrate, the plasma etching rate is slow, and the production equipment of the ultraviolet lithography system, the electron beam evaporation system and the plasma etching system is expensive and is not suitable for large-scale popularization and use, so that the use process has no small limitation.
Therefore, the current preparation process of the low-dimensional rare earth boride nano material greatly restricts the further development of the low-dimensional rare earth boride nano material in the field of micro-nano electronic devices.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to overcome the defects of the prior art, the invention provides the low-dimensional rare earth boride nano material and the solid phase preparation method thereof. The method can prepare the large-area high-density monocrystal nano material and effectively regulate and control the growth morphology of the nano material.
The invention also aims to provide a low-dimensional rare earth boride nano material.
In order to solve the technical problems, the invention adopts the technical scheme that:
a low-dimensional rare earth boride nano material and a solid phase preparation method thereof comprise the following steps:
s1, catalyst film synthesis: depositing a catalyst onto a substrate;
s2, solid phase source thermal evaporation and deposition: under the protection of carrier gas, the boron source, anhydrous rare earth halide and the substrate are placed at the growth temperature of 700-1200 ℃ and the growth pressure of 0.1-100 kPa for evaporation and growth for 0.5-4 h, and the low-dimensional rare earth boride nano material is obtained on the substrate.
The reaction principle is as follows: at high temperature, the boron source evaporates to form a boron-containing vapor; or redox to B 2 O 2 Gas, subsequently boron-containing steam or B 2 O 2 The gas is carried over the substrate by a carrier gas; mixing with anhydrous rare earth halide gas molecules evaporated at high temperature, and reacting to generate rare earth boride molecules. In the heating process of the step S2, the catalyst on the substrate is melted into catalyst liquid drops, the generated rare earth boride molecules are continuously dissolved into the catalyst liquid drops, and when the solubility of the rare earth boride in the catalyst liquid drops reaches a supersaturated state, the rare earth boride is precipitated along the optimal energy direction to form a low-dimensional rare earth boride nano structure.

The catalyst liquid drop has low acting force with the substrate and can be used forSmB grown on the bottom 6 And (4) jacking up the particles. While SmB is continuously generated along with the reaction 6 Molecules are continuously dissolved into the catalyst and are continuously separated out, and finally a one-dimensional nanowire structure is formed. As the growth temperature and growth gas pressure are increased, more catalyst particles will be activated, resulting in an increasing density of nanowires.

Comparative example 1
First, the silicon wafer was cut into 1 × 1cm pieces 2 And a small piece with a thickness of 1 mm was used as a substrate. Next, metal Pr powder (purity 99.99%) was coated on the Si substrate, and then put into a quartz tube to react, and the temperature was raised to 1080 ℃. In a carrier gas (30% H) 2 And 70% Ar) flow of 80sccm, stabilized BCl 3 Gas flow, 5 minutes later, the quartz tube was cooled to room temperature. The product, distilled water, was then washed several times with dilute hydrochloric acid to eliminate impurities. Finally, after drying in vacuum at 80 ℃ for 4 hours, a layer of grey product was found to be deposited on the Si substrate to obtain PrB 6 A nanowire. As shown in fig. 14a and 14b, prB 6 The diameter of the nano-wire is 10-100 nm, and the length is 2-10 μm.
Comparative example 1 use of BCl 3 Gas is used as a boron source to synthesize PrB 6 A nanowire. Required BCl 3 Gases are dangerous chemicals which inevitably present a safety hazard to people and environmental pollution and increase the cost of raw materials.
In conclusion, the raw materials adopted by the scheme are the boron source and the anhydrous rare earth halide which are both solid phases, and meanwhile, the rare earth halide has weak chemical activity, is safer and more environment-friendly, and meanwhile, because the chemical activity is weak, excessive addition of reactants is not needed, and the cost can be saved. The method only needs two steps, firstly synthesizing the catalyst film, secondly evaporating the solid phase source heat and depositing on the catalyst film, has few process flows, and has very high growth density and single appearance. The method can grow the low-dimensional rare earth boride nano material within 0.5-4 h, and the growth rate is high. Thereby preparing the large-area, high-density and single-crystal low-dimensional rare earth boride nano material.
