Description

Controllable growth has the method for the carbon nanotube of certain diameter and distribution density
Technical field
The present invention relates to the method that a kind of controllable growth has the carbon nanotube of certain diameter and distribution density.
Background technology
Carbon nanotube is a kind of nano-tube material with unique physical chemical property, shows in information, and Chu Qing, there is important application prospects aspects such as nanoelectronics.It generally can discharge with carbon arc, the preparation of pulsed laser deposition or chemical Vapor deposition process methods such as (CVD).With CVD method carbon nano-tube film the time, the diameter of controlling carbon nanotube and distribution density are great for the application value of carbon nanotube on field-transmitting cathode.And general existing method is all complicated, and is not easy the diameter and the distribution density of controlling carbon nanotube.
Summary of the invention
The invention provides a kind of method, can control the diameter of the carbon nano-tube film that uses the preparation of CVD method and distribution density preferably in applicable scope.
A kind of controllable growth of the present invention has the method for the carbon nanotube of certain diameter and distribution density, comprises following processing step:
1. the method with magnetic filtered vacuum arc plasma foil deposition or magnetron sputtering plates one deck catalyst film on substrate.
2. the substrate that will plate catalyzer is under hydrogen atmosphere, and reduction is handled under 600 degrees centigrade temperature;
3. the use traffic ratio is that 1: 10 acetylene and rare gas element mixed gas are reactant gases, at 700 degrees centigrade of following carbon nano-tubes;
4. under inert gas atmosphere, lower the temperature.
Method of the present invention is simple, and these two parameters of the recovery time of the thickness of control catalyst film and hydrogen only can realize the diameter and the distribution density of controlling carbon nanotube.To observing with SEM and TEM with the carbon nanotube of method preparation of the present invention, the thickness of finding catalyzer is thick more, the particle that forms is big more, the diameter of carbon nanotubes grown is big more, and with the increase of catalyst layer thickness, the pellet density that forms increases, and the density of carbon nanotubes grown also increases.And for the catalyst films of different recovery times, it is long more to get the recovery time with hydrogen, and particle is more little, and the carbon nanotubes grown diameter is also more little.
Description of drawings
Fig. 1 is the surface topography of substrate after reduction is handled that has plated catalyzer iron;
Fig. 2 is for having grown the surface topography behind the carbon nanotube on above-mentioned substrate, a, b, c, d, the iron film thickness of e are respectively 5nm, 10nm, 20nm, 30nm, 40nm;
Fig. 3 is the I-V curve of the field emission of above-mentioned sample.
Embodiment
Method of the present invention just may further comprise the steps:
1. magnetic filtered vacuum arc method plasma-deposited or magnetron sputtering plates one deck catalyst film on substrate, and thickness is the 5-100 nanometer.The catalyzer that uses is iron, cobalt or nickel.
2. the substrate that will plate catalyzer is under hydrogen atmosphere, and reduction was handled 15 minutes to 5 hours under 600 degrees centigrade temperature, and the length of recovery time can be controlled the size and the density of the granules of catalyst of formation;
3.The use traffic ratio is that 1: 10 acetylene and argon gas mixed gas is reactant gases, at 700 degrees centigrade of following carbon nano-tubes;
4.Under argon gas atmosphere, lower the temperature.
Use aforesaid method, the carbon nanotube of a series of different diameters of growth and density on silicon substrate:
1. plating catalyzer
Utilize magnetic filtered vacuum arc plasma foil depositing system deposited catalyst (iron) layer on substrate, and carry out real-time thickness monitoring, deposit a series of different thickness 5nm, 10nm, 20nm, 30nm, the iron layer of 40nm;
2. hydrogen is handled
The substrate that is coated with iron reduced under 600 degrees centigrade with hydrogen handled its flow 110ml/min 2 hours;
3. long nanotube
Sample 700 degrees centigrade of reactions down, feeds the mixed gas of argon gas (300ml/min) and acetylene (30ml/min) after reduction is handled, reacted 5 minutes;
4. after reaction finishes, under argon gas atmosphere, be cooled to room temperature.
With SEM the surface topography of prepared sample is observed, and tested their field emission characteristic.Reduction is handled back sample surfaces pattern and is seen Fig. 1, a, and b, c, d, the thickness of the iron of e is respectively 5nm, 10nm, 20nm, 30nm, 40nm; Catalyst particle size, density increases with the increase of catalyst layer thickness.Grown sample topography such as Fig. 2 of carbon nanotube, a, b, c, d, the thickness of the iron film of e is respectively 5nm, 10nm, 20nm, 30nm, 40nm, the diameter of carbon nanotube and density also increase with catalyst layer thickness.When catalyst layer very thin (less than 20nm) time, reduction rear catalyst particle is little and rare, and corresponding carbon nanotubes grown diameter density is little, and canal curvature is lied down (sample 1,2), along with catalyst layer thickness increases, particle becomes big and becomes close, and it is close that the carbon nanotube chap becomes, when catalyst layer reaches certain thickness (greater than 20 nanometers), carbon nanotube just can vertical growth (sample 3,4,5).This is because the easier length of carbon nanotube of thick (greater than 50 nanometers) is straight, and has arrived certain density, because adjacent carbon nanotube squeezes mutually, just grows towards axial direction separately.
The field emission results of each sample as shown in Figure 3, from field emission results, launching best is sample 4, next is a sample 3,5, the poorest is sample 2, and the straight pipe of this explanation is launched, curved pipe emission is poor, comparative sample 1,2, sample 1 is better than sample 2 emissions, this is the pipe range De Taimi because of sample 2, adjacent carbon nanotube generation electrostatic shielding effect.Comparative sample 3,4,5, sample 4 pipe is straight and density is moderate, therefore launches preferably, and sample 3 is because look straight not enough, and sample 5 is because look too close, so emission is not as sample 4.
