Example 1
Referring to fig. 1 and fig. 2, a schottky micro-generator based on ultra-smooth structure according to the present invention will be described.

The monocrystalline two-dimensional interface material refers to a two-dimensional material having a monocrystalline phase, wherein the two-dimensional material refers to a material in which electrons can move freely only in a nanoscale of two dimensions, and preferably, when the materials of the conductive layer 1 and the semiconductor layer 2 are monocrystalline two-dimensional interface materials, the monocrystalline two-dimensional interface material preferably also has an atomically flat surface. The atomically flat surface refers to a surface with a surface roughness less than 1nm, wherein the conducting layer 1 and the semiconductor layer 2 need to form not only schottky contact but also ultra-smooth contact, so the following ways are adopted for the materials of the conducting layer 1 and the semiconductor layer 2:
1. the conductive layer 1 is made of a conductive material with a single-crystal two-dimensional material, for example, graphite or graphene, and the semiconductor layer 2 may be made of a semiconductor material with a single-crystal two-dimensional interface, for example, tungsten diselenide, tungsten disulfide, or black phosphorus; alternatively, the semiconductor layer 2 may be made of a semiconductor material having an atomically flat surface, for example, an alloy of one or more of silicon, gallium arsenide, indium gallium arsenide, zinc oxide, germanium, gallium nitride, and indium phosphide, and any surface of the semiconductor material may be processed to be atomically flat.
2. The conductive layer 1 is made of a metal material having an atomically flat surface, for example, an alloy of any one or more of gold, silver, copper, iron, tin, platinum, mercury, aluminum, zinc, titanium, tungsten, lead, or nickel, and any surface of the metal material is processed to be atomically flat; in this case, the semiconductor layer 2 is made of a semiconductor material having a single-crystal two-dimensional interface, such as tungsten diselenide, tungsten disulfide, or black phosphorus.
Further, as a specific embodiment of the schottky micro-generator based on the structural super-slip technology provided by the present invention, a second metal electrode layer 3 may be further disposed on the top of the conductive layer 1, a first metal electrode layer 4 is disposed on the bottom or one side of the semiconductor layer 2, and the first metal electrode layer 4 and the semiconductor layer 2 form an ohmic contact, and are respectively connected to the second metal electrode layer 3 and the first metal electrode layer 4 by leads, and an electrical signal formed between the conductive layer 1 and the semiconductor layer 2 is led out, so as to obtain the schottky micro-generator based on the structural super-slip technology, which can be placed in a very weak environment, collects external energy to drive the conductive layer 1 and the semiconductor layer 2 to generate relative motion, and generates a dc signal to power a small device. The purpose of the second metal electrode layer 3 is to facilitate current output, and the second metal electrode layer 3 may also be omitted to output current in other manners, which is not limited in this time.
The first metal electrode layer 4 can be in conduction with the semiconductor layer 2, so that non-equilibrium carriers in the semiconductor layer 2 can be led out to the first metal electrode layer 4, schottky contact between the conductive layer 1 and the semiconductor layer 2 can be achieved, and an electric signal can be generated when the conductive layer 1 and the semiconductor layer 2 move relatively. In the contact between the conventional super-slip sheet and the substrate in the prior art, because the non-equilibrium carriers in the substrate can not flow, the Schottky contact can not be formed.
Preferably, the second metal electrode layer 3 and the first metal electrode layer 4 may be made of one or more alloys of gold, silver, copper, iron, tin, platinum, mercury, aluminum, zinc, titanium, tungsten, lead, and nickel, and have good electrical conductivity, and can be connected to a lead to output current.
For the output effect of the schottky micro-generator based on the structural ultra-slip technique, please refer to fig. 4, wherein fig. 4(a) is a current measurement experiment of 2000 cycles of the schottky micro-generator based on the structural ultra-slip technique; as can be seen in connection with fig. 4 (a): the current output in each slip cycle is very stable and as the number of slip cycles increases, its current also gradually increases. As can be seen in connection with fig. 4 (b): a sliding cycle test of approximately 5000 cycles was performed at a constant normal force, gradually increasing the corresponding velocity from 4 μm/s to 24 μm/s. As can be seen from the figure, the average current (upper curve) does not decay, increasing with the number of slip cycles at different slip speeds. The measured friction (lower curve) has a decline over the first approximately 64 cycles, and over the course of thousands of subsequent slips the friction is substantially stable at different slip speeds and increases slowly with increasing slip speed.
For clarity of comparison, a conventional schottky micro-generator was provided as a comparative example in which a platinum plated AFM probe was slid directly against N-type silicon having the same structure as shown in fig. 3. The test piece is subjected to a measuring current experiment of 2000 cycles and a sliding cycle test of 5000 times under constant normal force; as can be seen in connection with fig. 4 (b): the output current mainly takes a pulse form, the output of the current is unstable, the peak current can reach 60pA, but the average current is only 15 pA; during the first 30 slip cycles, the average current decays rapidly to 0 and the power generation process stops. And, the friction force of the traditional schottky micro generator is twice that of the schottky micro generator based on the structure ultra-smooth technology.
The above experimental results show that: the schottky microgenerator based on the structure ultra-smooth technology has almost unlimited life, and the current of the traditional schottky microgenerator is attenuated very fast, so that the power generation process stops, and the output current of the schottky microgenerator based on the structure ultra-smooth technology is more stable, and the current output of the traditional schottky microgenerator is improved by two orders of magnitude.
The current of the traditional Schottky microgenerator disappears mainly because the high heat of local friction causes the surface of a semiconductor to be oxidized to form an insulating layer; it can be seen from the characterization results in conjunction with fig. 5(a) and (b) that a current of about 25pA is clearly present in the non-slip region, but in the middle 10 × 10 μm slip region, after 66 slip cycles have elapsed, the generated dc current decays to zero.
The elemental composition and relative content of the no-slip region and the 66-slip period region on the silicon surface were characterized by an energy spectrometer. In connection with the experimental results obtained in fig. 5(c), the contents of oxygen and carbon elements increased after 66 sliding cycles, wherein the content of oxygen element increased from 0.45% to 0.7%; the content of carbon element is increased from 1.6 percent to 2.8 percent; while the content of silicon element is reduced from 97.8% to 96.5%. The in-situ topography shown in fig. 6 shows a small raised area in the sliding region, with a height of about 1 nm. From the test results, it is surmised that interface friction and large local pressure during sliding of the AFM probe and the silicon surface cause local high temperature, resulting in surface accumulation of carbon and oxygen elements, resulting in rapid oxidation on the silicon surface and formation of a thin insulating layer.
As shown in fig. 5(d) - (g), by selecting the I-V curve characterization function of the C-AFM at the points 1# and 2# identified in fig. 5(a), and measuring the points 1# and 2# respectively, after 66 sliding cycles, the I-V curves at the points 1# and 2# exhibit capacitance characteristics at an amplitude voltage of 4V, but the I-V curves of the schottky diode can be obtained at the same position before sliding at an amplitude voltage of 4V, which indicates that the surface is insulated after 66 sliding cycles.
For a schottky micro-generator based on the structured super-slip technique, SEM characterization and AFM scan morphology of the interface of the graphite islands as shown in fig. 7(a) and (b), which have very flat two-dimensional van der waals surfaces, can form a structured super-slip contact with an atomically smooth N-type silicon surface whose AFM scan morphology is shown in fig. 7 (d). Therefore, the conductive layer 1 and the semiconductor layer 2 will have a larger effective contact area in the structural ultra-slip contact state, have a larger current density, and the low energy dissipation inhibits the deposition and oxidation of carbon on the silicon surface under the structural ultra-slip contact condition, thereby prolonging the service life.
With the structure ultra-sliding contact shown in fig. 8(a), the semiconductor layer 2 has a self-cleaning effect during the repeated sliding process of the semiconductor layer 2, so that the semiconductor layer 2 can repeatedly clean impurity molecules in the sliding region and maintain a stable structure ultra-sliding contact state, thereby achieving ultra-long service life and stable and efficient dc output current. And this phenomenon is reflected by a reduction in friction during the initial slip cycle shown in fig. 8 (b).
In combination with the above experiments it is evident that: for the Schottky micro-generator based on the structure ultra-smooth technology, the conducting layer 1 and the semiconductor layer 2 are kept in structure ultra-smooth contact, power generation is completely realized based on a carrier migration mechanism caused by an unbalanced electric field, the Schottky micro-generator has a very large effective contact area, an ultra-low friction coefficient and no abrasion characteristic, high current density can be realized, ultra-long service life and extremely-stable output and high conversion efficiency can be realized, the output current density is 1000 times higher than that of the conventional Schottky micro-generator, the Schottky micro-generator is extremely stable in at least 5000 sliding cycles, and the problems of short service life and insufficient current density of the conventional Schottky micro-generator are solved.

the material of the conducting layer 1 and the semiconductor layer 2 is selected, metal capable of forming ultra-smooth contact and Schottky contact at the same time is needed, then the conducting layer 1 is transferred to the top surface of the semiconductor layer 2, and the conducting layer 1 and the semiconductor layer 2 form structural ultra-smooth and Schottky contact;
and S4, forming a second metal electrode layer 3 on the surface of the conductive layer 1, coating the top metal layer on the upper surface of the conductive layer 1, and arranging the second metal electrode layer 3 and the first metal electrode layer 4 on the conductive layer 1 by electroplating or paving and the like, and connecting the second metal electrode layer 3 and the first metal electrode layer 4 through a lead.
The conductive layer 1 and the semiconductor layer 2 which are manufactured by the steps slide relatively, and the electric signals of the semiconductor layer 2 and the conductive layer 1 are led out by adopting a lead. The Schottky generator manufactured by the method has 100 percent of effective contact area, thereby realizing stable and high-density output; meanwhile, due to the characteristics of ultra-smooth structure, low friction and no abrasion, the almost unlimited service life can be realized, and the contradiction between the abrasion, the service life and the output density of the traditional Schottky microgenerator is effectively solved.
