Nanostructures has potential applications in numerous fields and can one day, change our world. It is an active field of research that yields many unexpected and promising results for researchers. In this work, we aim to study the field emission properties of nanomaterials. We have successfully used a focused laser beam to enhance the field emission properties of CuO nanorods samples, synthesized a novel nanomaterial system and assembled and test the distance dependence field emission properties of single CuO nanorod samples using a probe station, a custom made stage and a field emission chamber. Using a focused laser beam system, large scale laser patterning was carried out on CuO nanorods samples and the laser patterning process created arrays of micro-platforms. Nanorods by the edges of the platform do not face the screening effect and thus, the exposed sides of these nanorods also contribute to field emission leading to an improvement in the field emission performance. This demonstrates the feasibility of using a focused laser beam for large scale micro-patterning and as a mean to improve the field emission properties of nanostructures samples. In addition, using a simple way of heating copper coated carbon paper in ambient, novel hybrid CuO-CuCO3 nanosystems have also been synthesized. The percentage of CuCO3 in the hybrid nanosystem can be adjusted by varying the thickness of the copper coating. Field emission tests reveal that these nanosystems are among the better performers compared to many samples and they are potential candidates for future generation field emission devices. Using a probe station, we were able to assemble single CuO nanorod samples onto an etched tungsten tip. A custom made stage was used in conjunction with a field emission chamber to test the field emission properties of the samples. Distance dependence field emission tests show that the enhancement factor β and the turn-on field ETO are dependent on the electrode separation distance d.

Inside the nanostructures, electrons are confined in the nanoscale dimension(s) but are free to move about in the other dimension(s). A simple way of classifying nanostructures [1]: Quantum well (2D): Electrons are confined in 1 dimension but are free to move about in the other 2 dimensions Quantum wire (1D): Electrons are confined in 2 dimensions but are free to move about in 1 dimension. Quantum wires include nanotubes and nanorods. Quantum dot (0D): Electrons are confined in all 3 dimensions such as in a nanocrystallite. 1.2 Motivations In this work, the focus is on the 1D nanostructures. In recent years, 1D nanostructures like nanotubes and nanorods have attracted much attention due to their unique mechanical and electrical properties [2-5]. This enables them to find potential application in fields such as biomedical [6], catalysts [7], sensor [8] and field emission emitter [9]. Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) are the most widely studied and have found numerous potential applications [10-15]. Among the applications, extensive research has been done on CNTs regarding their field emission properties [15-17] and this could lead to a new generation of flat panel displays [18]. This is due to the nanotubes and nanorods having sharp tip and high aspect ratio, capable of enhancing the local field [19]. Other reasons for application in field emission also included the increased in emission area due to the fact that the side of the nanotubes and nanorods are able to field emit and the formation of unique forms of chemical compounds in the nanostructures that serve as good emitter [20-25]. Apart from researching on CNTs in the area of field emission application, various metal-oxide based nanorods have also been studied. Titanium-Oxide (TiO2) nanorods, Zinc-Oxide (ZnO) nanorods and Indium-Oxide (In2O3) nanorods are among some of the metal-oxide nanorods that have shown much potential in this area but it is not cost-effective to grow them [26-30]. Recently, a simple method has been developed in our lab to grow metal-oxide nanostructures by heating them in ambient air [31, 32]. This method has led to the easy and thus, economical growth of many promising 1D nanomaterials such as Cupric-Oxide (CuO) nanorods, Cobalt-Oxide (CoO) nanorods, Vanadium-Oxide (VO) nanorods and Tungsten-Oxide (WO) nanorods. This opens up the possibility of developing economical and efficient flat panel displays. Although field emitter films require a sufficiently high area density to be functioning optimally, a highly dense film actually suffers from reduced field emission performance caused by the screening effect due to the proximity of the neighboring nanorods [33, 34]. Several methods have been employed to counter this effect by controlling the density of the emitter film [30, 35-37]. CuO nanorods form the backbone of this research as being a semiconductor, it has a lower surface potential barrier than metals and narrow band gap which are favorable for field emission. While CuO nanorods film is a potential source of field emitter, they too suffer from the screening effect when they are highly dense. In the first part of the thesis, a technique was introduced where large scale patterning of CuO nanorod films was carried out by a focused laser beam. This laser patterning process creates micro-platforms, allowing the nanorods along the edges of the platforms to field emit without facing the screening effect. This also serves to increase the total emission area of the sample and thereby, improving the field emission efficiency of the CuO nanorod films While a single nanomaterial system may show potential as a field emitter, hybrid nanosystems combining the properties of two or more different types of nanostructures could further enhance the field emission properties and allow for the tuning of field emission properties by varying the relative percentage of the individual nanomaterials in the hybrids. In recent years, hybrid nanosystems such as ZnO nanorods on carbon cloth and CNTs on carbon cloth have been developed and they have shown excellent field emission properties [38-40]. Hybrid CuO and ZnO nanostructures system have also been synthesized by directly heating brass in ambient conditions and the field emission properties can be tuned by varying the percentages of copper and zinc in brass [41]. In this work, a simple way of growing hybrid CuO and CuCO3 nanosystems is introduced where the hybrid CuO-CuCO3 nanosystem is synthesized by directly heating copper sputtered carbon paper in ambient. The relative concentration of CuCO3 can also be varied by changing the thickness of copper on carbon paper. Field emission properties of the nanosystems show the emission turn-on field and current can be tuned by the coating thickness of copper. Their field emission properties compared with other common field emitters will also be presented. Nanorod films are highly suitable for field emission applications but a single nanorod field emission test is required to understand the physics behind it as it eliminates screening and edge effects that are found in films. Much effort has been done to investigate the field enhancement factor dependence on electrode distance for single CNT. Several models for the relationship between the enhancement factor β and electrode separation distance d were proposed for individual carbon nanotube field emission. Among the models is the modified Miller model by Vallance and co-workers where the model consists of a sphere floating between a ground plane and a charged sphere. For this model, β decreases and approaches unity as d becomes very small. This is because the geometry approaches that of two opposing infinite planes when the separation is much smaller than the radius curvature at the cathode tip and the geometric field enhancement is eliminated. As d increases and approaches infinity, β will reach a constant value as it is then dependent only in its geometrical properties [42]. Smith et al. proposed that β is independent of d when the anode to cathode separation is greater than 3 times the height of the emitter away from the tip [43]. The reason being as the anode plate moved away from the CNT tip, the parallel plate approximation decreases and β becomes dependent on its geometrical properties instead of the electrode separation. A linear relationship between β and d however, was reported by Bai’s group [44]. In the final part of this work, a simple method to mount a single CuO nanorod onto an etched tungsten tip will be introduced. The study of the field emission properties of a single CuO nanorod is presented and the dependence between β and d will be established. A relationship between the turn-on field, ETO (defined as the electric field required to obtain 10 µA/cm2) and d is also presented. This study provides an understanding to how β and ETO depends on d for the field emission of a single metal-oxide nanorod. This project is organized as follows. Chapter 2 introduces the theory of field emission, the Fowler-Nordheim (FN) theory with brief derivation and the relationship between the FN theory and 1D nanostructure field emitters. Chapter 3 details the experimental procedures which includes the field emission setup, the various characterization and patterning tools. Chapter 4 presents the large scale laser patterning of CuO nanorod films and the effect on the field emission properties of the samples. Chapter 5 shows a simple way of growing hybrid CuO-CuCO3 nanosystems with potential as field emitters. Chapter 6 explores the field emission properties of a single CuO nanorod and how the field emission properties depends on the electrode separation distance d. Finally, Chapter 7 concludes the project. References [1] P. Moriarty, Nanostructured materials, Rep. Prog. Phys. 64, 297 (2001). [2] M. A. Osman, D. Srivastava, Nanotechnology. 12, 21 (2001) [3] M.

Wang, Appl Phys Lett. 88, 133107 (2006) Chapter 2 – Theory of field emission; Fowler Nordheim theory Field emission is defined as the emissions of electrons from the surface of a condensed phase e.g. metal into another phase e.g. vacuum [1]. To achieve a field emission, a potential difference is applied across the sample giving rise to an external field. This applied field distorts the potential of the sample enabling unexcited electrons to tunnel through (See Figure 2.1). Figure 2.1 Potential-energy diagrams for electrons at a metal surface under an applied field [2] The Fowler-Nordheim (FN) theory assumes that the resultant potential is triangular and a relation between the current density (J), the applied electric field (E) and the workfunction Φ of the material can be determined. In this chapter, a brief derivation of the FN equation will be carried out and its relation to the measurements collected in this project is also explored. The introduction of the enhancement factor β into the FN equation will also be discussed. 2.1 Tunneling current density In deriving the FN theory, we will first try to derive a tunneling current density for an electron passing through a general potential (See Figure 2.2) Figure 2.2 Potential barrier of a general shape along the x-axis The vertical axis refers to the energy (E) in the band diagram. q·φ(x) is the shape of the potential barrier, Ex is the electron energy along the x-direction and Ttun is the tunneling distance. The expression of the current density (J) induced by electrons tunneling in the x-direction through a generic potential barrier is [3]: +∞ J=q ∫ dv x vxN(vx)T(Ex) 0 (2.1) Where q is the charge of an individual electron, T(Ex) is the tunneling probability, that is the probability that one electron having energy Ex along the x-axis goes through the potential barrier. N(vx)dvx is the density of electrons with velocity between vx and vx+dvx along the x-axis. The integral is taken from 0 ∞ since the electrons are trapped in the metal for x1. This implies that the effective field F is greater than the average field. This is an advantage of using nanowires as a field emitter; the same electric field applied will result in a higher effective field thereby increasing the field emission current density. Since β is mainly related to the geometry of the nanostructure, it will be dependent on the morphology, length, l and diameter, d of the nanostructure [10]. For 1D nanostructure such as nanorod, β will be dependent on the aspect ratio (length over diameter) of the nanorod. Several groups have tried to come up with a relationship between β, l and d for CNT and single tip emitter [10-13] but they have failed to agree on a common model. However, it is generally agreed that as the aspect ratio of the nanorod increases, β increases as well. Taking natural log on both sides for Equation 2.13, we get; ln( By plotting the graph of ln( J B ) = − + ln A F F2 (2.15) 1 F J ) against and using the fact that β = we obtain the E E E2 gradient of the slope as -K(φ)3/2/β where K is a constant while the y-intercept gives the value of ln(αβ2/φ) where α is an area factor, which is equal to the ratio of an actual emitting surface area to an overall surface area, describing the geometrical efficiency of electron-field emission [14]. Knowing the workfunction, φ of the material, we can obtain a value for the enhancement factor β and the area factor α.

Lett. 84, 1126 (2004) Chapter 3 – Experimental setup In this chapter, we will present the details of the experimental setup and sample characterization technique used in this work. Section 3.1 provides the details of the hotplate technique employed for the synthesis of the CuO nanorods. This is followed by the details of the field emission measurement setup in Section 3.2. In Section 3.3, we describe an approach developed in this work where a single nanorod was secured onto the tip of a sharpened tungsten wire and subsequent measurement of the field emission from the single isolated nanorod. Sections 3.4 to 3.9 give a brief overview of the techniques used for the patterning and characterizations of the sample after the synthesis. 3.1 Growth of CuO nanorods In this work, CuO nanorods represent the main focus of our investigations. These CuO nanorods were synthesized by a simple heating technique. A piece of copper (99.999% purity, Sigma-Aldrich Pte Ltd) was used. To prepare the copper for the growth of CuO nanorods, its surfaces were polished with sandpaper to remove any dirt and the oxide layer. This mechanical polishing was sufficient to clean the copper making it suitable for the growth. The copper was then placed on a hotplate and heated at a temperature of 400°C to 500°C. Figure 3.1(a) shows a picture of the hotplate used and a few pieces of the polished metallic copper can be seen on the hotplate. After heating for sometime, the shining metallic pieces became dull and darkened as shown in Figure 3.1(b-c). After heating for the required duration, the copper plates were left to cool to room temperature. A black layer can be seen covering the copper plates and when viewed under the SEM, a layer of vertically aligned CuO nanorods were found as shown in Figure 3.1(d). Figure 3.1 (a) Hotplate with polished copper plates and tubes. (b) Freshly prepared copper plates and tubes. (c) Copper plate and tubes after heating for 10 mins at 400°C. (d) SEM image of the surface of the sample showing CuO nanorods. Figure 3.2 shows the proposed growth mechanism of the CuO nanorods. Even though the copper plates were heated at a temperature much lower than the melting point of the bulk metallic copper, the surface of these Cu plates could melt at a lower temperature. Under suitable growth temperature, the surface of the copper melts and the Cu atoms from the molten layer react with the oxygen in air to form CuO molecules. The CuO molecules then condense to form CuO nanorods. Apart from CuO molecules condensing to form CuO nanorods, there could also be surface diffusion of CuO molecules contributing to the formation of CuO nanorods. As the growth duration or temperature increases, more Cu atoms will be liberated from the molten layer to react with oxygen to form CuO and the CuO then migrates upwards and some condense on the CuO nanorods already formed, giving rise to longer and thicker CuO nanorods. Figure 3.2 Growth mechanism of CuO nanorods with increasing time/temperature with the black color region showing the molten state of Cu. 3.2 Field Emission measurement setup A dedicated field emission measurement system was setup and utilized in this work. Figure 3.3 shows a schematic of the field emission measurement system. It consists of a vacuum system with a main chamber that houses the sample. In order to accurately measure the field emission current density of the nanorod samples, the tests must be carried out in a high vacuum environment. To prepare the nanorod samples for the experiment, a small piece of the sample was cut out and pasted onto a silicon substrate with the aid of conducting copper tape. The nanorod sample acting as a cathode was then mounted onto a sample mount and an Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) glass plate covered with a layer of phosphor acting as an anode was placed on top of it. The anode and cathode were separated by 100µm thick polymer films as spacer. The anode and the cathode were connected to a Keithley 237 high voltage source measurement unit. The Keithley 237 high voltage source measurement unit was capable of supplying a voltage of 0-1100V and measuring the field emission current of up to 5 decimal places at the same time. A PC system was utilized to interface with the Keithley 237 for automated instrument control and data acquisition. The field emission measurement setup achieved a high level of vacuum with the help of a mechanical pump and a turbo pump (Figure 3.4). After 24 hours of pumping by the turbo pump, a pressure of 8x10-7 torr could be reached. In the event that lower pressure was desired or the pumping time was to be reduced, liquid nitrogen could be introduced to a cold trap. This reduced the pressure of the system to around 1/3 of the value (around 3x10-7 torr) that could be achieved by turbo pump alone. Figure 3.3 Field emission measurement setup with emphasis on field emission chamber. The sample is shown in black color in the diagram. Figure 3.4 Field emission measurement setup with emphasis on the vacuum system. 3.3 Measurement of Field Emission from Single Nanorod In order to carry out measurement of the field emission from a single CuO nanorod, we adopted the following procedure to first secure a single nanorod onto a sharp tungsten tip and then conduct field emission measurement from the assembled single CuO nanorods. CuO nanorods were first grown by heating a polished copper plate in ambient air at 400°C for 7 days. After the growth, the nanorods were placed under a probe station (Cascade Microtech REL 3200, Figure 3.5) with precision positioners (DCM 210 series) where an etched tungsten tip was held. A glass slide with a double sided carbon tape on it was positioned beneath the tungsten tip and using the controls of the probe station, the tip was then lowered until contact was made between the tip and tape. The tip was then moved inwards into the tape, piercing it and withdrawn. This effectively coats the tip with a layer of glue from the carbon tape. The coated tungsten tip was then moved towards the nanorods until contact between the nanorods and the tungsten tip was made. Once a nanorod was found to be adhered onto the tungsten tip, the tip was then withdrawn and viewed under scanning electron microscopy (SEM, JEOL JSM-6400F). The setup for field emission measurement is illustrated in Figure 3.6. It consisted of a fully UHV compatible micro piezo slides (MS 5) with MS controller unit (MSCU) driver electronics which allows for movements in the x-y-z direction. The tungsten tip with CuO nanorod acting as anode was placed on the slides and a commercially available tungsten tip with diameter of 12.5µm acting as cathode was placed on a custom made stage facing the nanorod. To align the 2 tips in the z direction, a long working distance microscope (Seiwa SKZ-1 bonocular microscope) with a 45x zoom was used to view the setup from the side and the height of the tungsten tip with CuO nanorod was then adjusted until it was at the same level with the cathode tungsten tip. The setup was placed in a field emission chamber and connected to a Keithley 237 high voltage source measurement unit (SMU). All tests are carried under a pressure of ~8x10-7 torr and at room temperature. To view the movement of the anode tip in the x and y directions for the field emission measurements, a color video camera with long working distance microscope (JVC KY-F50E) connected to a television set was used to view the setup from the top (See Figure 3.6). A position controller (Omicron Nanotechnology CPR 5) was used to move the anode, changing the separation between the electrodes d. During the alignment process, the errors for ∆x, ∆y and ∆z were estimated to be ±5µm. At each electrode distance, the voltage was applied from 0 to 1100V in steps of 10V. To ensure repeatability of the results, the application of voltage was repeated 20 times per electrode distance.

Figure 3.7 shows the schematic setup of a typical SEM. A beam of electrons is emitted from the electron gun and accelerated and focused onto a spot on the surface of the sample by means of magnetic field from the condenser lenses. The objective lens serves to limit the angular width of the electron beam thus, improves the depth of field in an image. When the electron beams impinges on the sample surface, several things can happen [1-2]: The electrons could undergo elastically scattering in the sample with little or no loss of energy and emerge from the sample as back-scattered electrons. The electrons could be inelastically scattered in the sample, giving rise to secondary electrons, auger electrons and X-rays The electrons could be absorbed and give rise to visible light in a process known as cathodoluminescence. The electrons could also give rise to electric current in the sample. Electron source 1st condenser lens Condenser aperture 2nd condenser lens Objective aperture Scan coils Objective lens Sample Figure 3.7 Schematic setup of a scanning electron microscope. For the study of surface morphology, secondary electrons are used. The number of secondary electrons depends on the energy of the primary electron beam, E0 and the angle of tilt of the sample [3]. Secondary electrons are emitted from a sample depth of 1nm thus, for low E0 and an increasing angle of tilt φ relative to the sample, majority of the electrons emitted from the samples are secondary electrons. During the operation, the secondary electrons are collected and accelerated towards the positively charged electrode of the detector and made to pass through a scintillator. The electrons collide with the scintillator material and photons are produced. The photons then travel through a light pipe via total internal reflection to a photomultiplier. On striking the photomultiplier, the photons are converted to highly amplified electric signal which is then fed to a computer display [4]. During SEM operation, a sample with conducting surface must be used otherwise, the electrons will accumulate on the surface of the sample and a charge-up will occur. If the sample is non-conducting by nature, a very thin layer of conducting material e.g. platinum is evaporated onto its surface. For the SEM images obtained throughout this project, the JSM-6700F field emission SEM is used. This FESEM uses a field emission cathode in the electron gun which is capable of producing narrower probing beam resulting in improved spatial resolution compared to the conventional SEM [5]. The JSM-6700F SEM is capable of a magnification from x 25 to 650,000x. 3.5 High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscope (HRTEM) The HRTEM is used to study samples at atomic resolution [6]. Figure 3.8 shows the schematic setup of a typical HRTEM. The sample is irradiated with a beam of electrons with energy ranging from 100-500keV. An image is formed with the electrons transmitted through the sample by a sophisticated electron optic system. The samples undergoing HRTEM studies need to be thin enough for the electron beam to pass through and capable of withstanding high vacuum. Preparation techniques such as ion beam milling and wedge polishing are frequently employed to obtain a thin enough sample. For nanorods or nanotubes with small enough dimensions, they can be suspended in a solvent such as alcohol and dispersed onto a copper grid for HRTEM imaging. The HRTEM used in this project is the JEOL JEM-3010F with an acceleration voltage of 300kV. This HRTEM is capable of providing a resolution of 0.17nm.

A monochromatic X-ray with wavelength λ is irradiated onto the sample and for a single crystal, if the path difference between the beams reflected from parallel atomic planes is an integer multiple of λ, the reflection intensity will be a maximum due to constructive interference. This is known as the Bragg’s law: 2d sinθ = nλ (3.1) where d is the spacing of atomic planes, n is an integer and θ is Bragg angle, which is the angle between the plane of the sample and the X-Ray source. In our studies, the XRD used is Bruker Analytical X-Ray system, Cu Kα radiation with λ=1.5406Å. In this system, the X-ray source and detector is fixed in position while the sample is being rotated during the measurement. This effectively varies θ and the range allowed for this system is from 20° to 140°. 3.7 X-Ray and UV photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS and UPS) XPS also known as Electron Spectroscopy for Chemical Analysis (ESCA) is commonly used to analyze elemental composition. Carried out in Ultra-High Vacuum (UHV), it does so by irradiating the sample with a beam of X-ray and if the X-ray photon energy is high enough, it can cause the core level electrons to escape [7]. With no energy loss, the kinetic energy of the electrons: K = hf - EB (3.2) Where h is the planck’s constant, f is the frequency of the X-ray and EB is the binding energy of the electrons. The binding energy is a characteristic of the element which the electron originates from and by analyzing the energy spectrum of electron, information on the elemental composition of the sample can be obtained. The XPS system used in this project is the ESCA MK II with Mg source. By using ultraviolet photons, the electronic states of the valance band can be studied and this technique is known as the Ultraviolet Photoelectron Spectroscopy (UPS). UPS is useful in measuring density of states (DOS), Fermi level shift, work function and chemical states. 3.8 Sputtering machine Sputtering is a process where the atoms from a solid material are ejected due to the bombardment of energetic ions on the material. In this work, the sputtering machine used is the radio frequency (RF) Magnetron Denton Discovery 18. During the sputtering process, argon (Ar) gas was introduced into the chamber and maintained at 100 Standard Cubic Centimeter per Minute (SCCM) with a pressure of 10mTorr. An RF power of 100W was used to ionize the argon gas. The typical sputtering rate of copper under these conditions is 20nm/min. 3.9 Laser system In order to carry out micro-patterning onto nanostructures, a simple technique has been developed in our lab for such purpose. Using a Helium Neon (He-Ne) laser of power of 38mW with a beam width and beam divergence of 1.24mm and 0.65mrad respectively together with an array of mirrors, a focused laser beam system is formed (Figure 3.9). The first beam splitter (S1) directs the beam towards the objective lens while an external light source (not shown in Fig 3.9) provided the illumination of the samples. The beam were focus onto the sample using a Nikon 50X lens (numerical aperture of 0.55) objective lens (L). The nanostructure sample was then placed on a MICOS XY sample stage with 25 mm travel and a minimum step size of 50nm in the x and y directions. Control of the stage was achieved by a MICOS motor controller and interfaced to the computer via Microsoft Visual Basic software. During patterning process, light was collected via the objective lens (L) and passed through S1 and S2 to be captured by a JVC CCD camera which was connected to a TV and a computer for view and capturing images/videos throughout the process [8]. The depth of nanostructure trimmed off by the focused laser beam depends on the power of the laser and how well the laser beam was being focused onto the sample surface.

Mater. 15, 300 (2003) Chapter 4 – Enhanced field emission of CuO nanorod films from large scale patterning by focused laser beam In this chapter, the field emission properties of CuO nanorods synthesized under various growth conditions were investigated and presented. Large scale patterning of the nanorods by focused laser beam resulting enhanced field emission properties will also be discussed. 4.1 Introduction In recent years, extensive research has been carried out on one dimensional nanomaterials due to their unique mechanical and electrical properties [1-4]. The sharp tip and high aspect ratio of the nanorods can effectively enhance the local electric field and thus making them a suitable candidate for field emitters [5]. A suitable material to be used as a field emitter is CuO nanorod. Zhu et al. [6] demonstrated the feasibility of synthesizing CuO nanorods on a large scale with promising field emission results. CuO nanorods are capable of achieving a high field emission current density at relatively low field and exhibiting uniform field emission distributions. A common drawback for highly dense 1-D field emitter film is the screening effect due to the proximity of the neighboring nanorods [7, 8]. Several methods have been employed to control the density of Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs). These methods include changing the composition of the catalyst [9], micro-contact printing [10] and reduction of density by excimer laser treatment [11]. In the case for nanorods, the effect of screening and their field emission properties have been investigated [12]. In this work, there are two main objectives. The first is to investigate the effect of the physical properties such as density, length and diameter of as-grown CuO nanorods on their field emission properties. The second objective is to find out how the exposed edges of platforms created through large scale patterning by direct focused laser nanofabrication will affects its field emission. We have found that the field emission properties of as-grown CuO nanorods can be varied by changing their physical properties and that large scale laser patterning is able to enhance their field emission properties. 4.2 Experimental details Vertically oriented CuO nanorods were synthesized by heating polished copper plates on a hotplate in ambient air. The growth time was varied from 5 -7 days and the growth temperature was varied from 400°C to 450°C. After the growth was completed, the sample was left to cool to room temperature and the layer of CuO nanorods was then extracted. The CuO nanorods were then characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM, JEOL JSM-6400F). Field emission tests were conducted for the as-grown CuO nanorods samples using a two-parallel-plate configuration in a vacuum chamber with a pressure of about 1×10−6 Torr [6]. The peeled nanorod films were adhered onto a copper substrate cathode by copper double-sided tape. Indium tin oxide (ITO) glass covered with a layer of phosphor was employed as the anode. Two polymer films were used as spacers and the distance between electrodes was kept at 200µm. A Keithley 237 high voltage source measurement unit (SMU) was used to apply a voltage from 0 to 1100V and to measure the emission current at the same time. All the measurements of the field emission current density (J) and the applied field (E) were performed at room temperature. To achieve stable measurements, the applied voltage was repeatedly ramped up and down until there were no significant changes in the J-E plot in between the ramps. After the field emission tests, laser patterning was carried out using a focused laser beam from a Helium-Neon laser [13, 14]. When CuO nanorods were illuminated by the focused laser beam, high laser light absorption resulted in the melting of the nanorods. The molten state of the CuO re-solidified into microballs and as a result, the CuO nanorods became readily truncated by the laser beam. The stage with the samples on it was programmed to move with respect to the laser and large scale patterning on CuO nanorods was achieved. Further details regarding the laser patterning were described in details in Chapter 3. In the 1st laser patterning process, parallel micro-channels of width 10µm were patterned by laser onto the CuO nanorods samples with the channel center to center distance separated at 30µm. The choice of 10µm for channel width allowed for easy calculation of the remaining area after the patterning. The number of channels cut onto the sample depended on its size i.e. the larger the sample, the more channels cut. As a result, the laser patterning gave st rise to a parallel array of micro-platforms with a width of 20µm. After the 1 patterning process, field emission tests were conducted again under the same pressure. The 2 samples with the highest nanorod density studied previously were subjected to further laser patterning. More channels of width 10µm were cut orthogonally to the previous platforms forming micro-squares with area of 400µm2. After the 2nd laser patterning, the samples were subjected to the field emission tests. This allowed us to investigate the effect of more exposed edges on the field emission properties. In this work, we used the growth conditions of the samples to denote them i.e. samples grown at 400°C for 7 days are denoted as S400-7. The 1st laser patterning process removed 29%, 27% and 28% of the CuO nanorods in the samples S450-5, S400-7 and S450-7 respectively. After the 2nd laser patterning, the percentages of the remaining area of the samples covered with CuO nanorods were 54% and 53% for samples S400-7 and S450-7 respectively. 4.3 Results and discussions Three batches of CuO nanorods films with varying growth conditions were synthesized and characterized. Table 4.1 lists the growth conditions and physical properties of the as-grown nanorods. The side view SEM images of the CuO nanorods are shown in Figure 4.1. Comparing Figure 4.1 (a), (b), (c) and (d), an increase in growth temperature with the same duration results in a larger diameter and length of the nanorods. Comparing Figure 4.1 (c), (d) and (e), (f), an increase in growth duration while keeping temperature constant gives rise to longer nanorods with larger diameter. From Table 4.1, it can also be observed that longer growth duration with the same growth temperature results in a higher density while a higher growth temperature with the same growth duration does not show significant change in the density.

The length and diameter distributions for the 3 samples were obtained by measuring the length and diameter of 400 individual CuO nanorods from the side view SEM images of each sample. For the diameter distribution, 20 SEM images for each sample were analyzed and for the length distribution, 5 SEM images from each sample were analyzed. The SEM images were obtained from different locations for better representation of the sample. The distributions are shown in Figure 4.2. From Figure 4.2, it is observed that CuO nanorods grown at higher temperature have a larger range in the length distribution as compared to CuO nanorods grown at a lower temperature. The same applies to CuO nanorods grown at the same temperature but for a longer duration. For samples with the same growth duration but different temperature, a higher temperature within the growth temperature range enables more Cu atoms to be liberated from the surface, forming more CuO, which in turn favors longer CuO nanorods formation. With the existence of longer nanorods and nanorods that just started to form before cooling, the samples heated at a higher temperature give rise to a larger spread in length. From this, it can be seen that control over the physical properties of the samples can be achieved by changing the growth duration or temperature.

After the studies on the field emission properties of the as-grown CuO nanorods, focused laser beam patterning was employed to create micro-patterns in the samples. Figure 4.3 (a) shows top view SEM images of CuO nanorods before laser patterning process. Figure 4.3 (b) and (c) show top view SEM images of CuO nanorods after the 1st laser patterning process and it can be observed that the platforms are periodically spaced with equal dimensions. From Figure 4.3 (d) and (e), it can be observed that the 2nd laser patterning process created micro-squares that are also periodically spaced and have equal dimensions. From Figure 4.3 (f), it can be observed that the CuO nanorods melted to form microballs when exposed to laser radiation, consistent with observations in a previous study [14]. The measured field emission current densities (J) versus applied field (E) for the various CuO nanorod samples are shown in Figure 4.4. Table 4.2 summarizes the field emission results of the various samples before and after laser patterning. For the as-grown CuO nanorods films, S400-7 has the best field emission properties compared to S450-7 and S450-5. The average aspect ratio for S450-5 (~156) is lower than that of S400-7 (~170) and it has a lower density; thus, a higher aspect ratio and density gives rise to better field emission performance. Comparing S400-7 with S450-7, both samples have similar density but S450-7 has a lower aspect ratio (~132); and from this, we can deduce that for samples with similar density, a higher aspect ratio gives better field emission performance. An experiment was carried out where the entire area of CuO nanorods were truncated by focused laser beam and when the sample was subjected to field emission tests, no field emission properties were detected. Thus, we can deduce that laser truncated regions do not contribute to field emission and the enhanced current density J presented in this work has taken into account the reduction in effective emitter area. After the 1st laser patterning where micro-platforms were patterned onto the samples, there is a significant improvement in the field emission current density. This is a result of having more emission sites when the exposed sides of the nanorods along the edges of the platforms contribute to the field emission. The ratio in the Table 4.2 is the ratio of the current density after patterning to the as-grown current density at 5.5V/µm. For the 2 samples with higher nanorod density, there is a significant improvement in the turn-on field. The improvement can be attributed to higher area density samples having more emission sites created after the laser patterning process than lower area density samples and this reduces the field needed to achieve the turn on current. Comparing how the 1st and 2nd laser patterning affects the field emission of the samples, Figure 4.4 (c), (d), (e) and (f) show that the performance after 2nd laser patterning process is still better than the as-grown field emission and there is no significant change in the field emission current density for the samples after the 2nd laser patterning process. This suggests that the increase in field emission performance caused by more exposed edges of the micro-square platforms were offset by the reduction in effective emitters such as long nanorods that were truncated in the process. Using the Fowler-Nordheim (FN) equation [6, 15, 16] 3 αA Bφ 2 ( βE avg ) 2 exp(− ) J= φ βE avg (1) where J is the emission current density (A/cm2), Eavg is the average electric field (V/µm), φ is the workfunction of the emitters (eV) with the workfunction of CuO being 4.5eV [16] , α is the area factor and β is the enhancement factor. A and B are constants and their values are 1.54x10-6 and 6.44x103 respectively. We can determine α and β for the various samples before and after laser patterning.

Table 4.3 Enhancement factor and area factor of the various CuO nanorods before and after laser patterning. Table 4.3 shows the enhancement factor β and area factor α before and after laser patterning. From table 4.3, the samples show a slight fluctuation in the enhancement factor and a significant increase in the area factor after the 1st laser patterning. The 2nd laser patterning led to a decrease in area factor with the enhancement factor fluctuating within the error. The 1st laser patterning enables the exposed sides of the platforms to more effectively field emit without facing screening. This led to an increase in the number of field emission sites and effectively increased the area factor α1. α2 is larger than α0 and again, we can attribute this to the increased in field emission sites after the laser patterning process. Although α2 is expected to be larger than α1 due to the increase in exposed sides, it is in fact lower. A possible reason for this could be that the effective emission sites such as long nanorods are not evenly distributed across the samples and the 2nd laser patterning process removed almost half the samples’ area and could have removed some areas that contain more emission sites, thus lowering α2. The enhancement factor of the sample is largely dependent on its geometry and morphology. Since the laser-truncated area does not contribute to field emission and the nanorods inside the strips and micro-squares are unaffected by the laser, the enhancement factor before and after laser patterning should remain unchanged. The enhancement factor for S450-5 before and after the laser patterning process shows a difference and this could be caused by our experimental measurements. 4.4 Conclusion In summary, we have synthesized 3 batches of CuO nanorods with various physical properties and patterned them on a large scale using focused laser. Good control over the physical properties of the nanorods can be achieved by changing the growth duration or temperature. This study also demonstrates the feasibility of using focused laser as a mean to conduct large scale micro patterning. The laser patterning also improves the field emission properties of the nanorods and this is attributed to the increased in emission sites for the exposed nanorods along the edges of the platforms.

Lett. 419, 458 (2006) Chapter 5 – Field emission from hybrid CuO and CuCO3 nanosystems In this chapter, we present a simple way of synthesizing hybrid CuO and CuCO3 nanosystems. Methods of characterizing the samples will also be presented and the field emission properties of the samples will be discussed. 5.1 Introduction Hybrid nanosystems combining the properties of two or more different types of nanostructures could further enhance the field emission properties and allow for the tuning of field emission properties by varying the relative percentage of the individual nanomaterials in the hybrids. Recently, hybrid CuO and ZnO nanorods nanostructures have been synthesized by directly heating brass in ambient conditions and the field emission properties can be tuned by varying the percentages of copper and zinc in brass [1]. Carbon cloth possesses field emission property due to the large quantity of potential emitting sites on its protruding carbon fibers and is a candidate for large area field emission flat cathode [2]. Taking advantage of the rough geometry of the carbon cloth, nanomaterials grown on carbon cloth are expected to exhibit enhanced field emission properties due to the extra geometrical enhancement from the multistage effect [3]. Ren and coworkers have grown ZnO nanorods and CNTs on top of carbon cloth and achieved excellent field emission properties with ultra low turn-on and threshold field [4-6]. Carbon paper, unlike carbon cloth, has no field emission properties by itself due to its planar geometry and lack of protruding fibers. Thus, it allows us to characterize the field emission current performance of the samples on carbon paper substrate more accurately. On the other hand, to the best of our knowledge, there has been no field emission study on hybrid nanosystem with CuO and CuCO3 reported. To further enrich the pool of field emission candidates and to achieve better controllability of field emission, hybrid CuO-CuCO3 nanosystem was synthesized by directly heating copper sputtered carbon paper in ambient in this work. The relative concentration of CuCO3 can be varied by changing the thickness of copper on carbon paper. Field emission properties of the hybrids show the emission turn-on field and current can be tuned by the coating thickness of copper. 5.2 Experimental details As-purchased Toray carbon papers with thickness of 0.28mm were cut into 1cm x 1cm pieces and placed in a radio-frequency plasma-assisted sputtering machine (Denton Vacuum Discovery 18) and the chamber was evacuated to a base pressure of 10−6 Torr. After that, Ar plasma with a power of about 100 W was induced to bombard a pure Cu (Angstrom Sciences, 99.999%) target. The deposition rate was ~20nm/min and last for 10 minutes (~200nm), 20 minutes (~400nm), 90 minutes (~1800nm), 120 minutes (~2400nm) and 240 minutes (~4800nm) under room temperature (25°C). We shall use the notation Cu200_C, Cu400_C, Cu1800_C, Cu2400_C and Cu4800_C to denote these samples. After the sputtering process, the copper sputtered carbon papers were then heated at 400°C for 3 days using a hotplate in ambient condition. For comparison, a few pieces of pure carbon papers were heated together with the copper coated samples. After the growth process, scanning electron microscopy (SEM, JEOL JSM-6400F), X-Ray diffraction system (XRD, Bruker Analytical X-Ray system, Cu Kα radiation, λ=1.5406Å), transmission electron microscope (TEM, JEOL JEM-3010F, 300kV), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS, ESCA MK II; Mg source) and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS, Surface, Nanostructure and Interface Science (SINS) beamline at Singapore Synchrotron Light Source (SSLS)) [7] were used to characterize the samples. Field emission tests for the various samples were carried out using a two-parallel-plate configuration in a vacuum chamber at a pressure of 1x10-6 Torr [8]. The samples were adhered onto a Cu substrate cathode by double-sided copper tape. Indium tin oxide (ITO) glass covered with a layer of phosphor was employed as the anode. A polymer film was used as a spacer and the distance between electrodes was kept at 200µm. A Keithley 237 high voltage source measurement unit (SMU) was used to apply a voltage from 0 to 1100 V and to measure the emission current at the same time. All the measurements were performed at room temperature. 5.3 Results and discussions Figure 5.1 (a) and (b) show the SEM images of pure carbon paper before and after heating respectively. It can be observed that the carbon paper fibers undergo no significant change after heating at 400°C for 3 days. Figure 5.1(c) shows particle-like structures with average size of 180nm growing on the C fibers with the exception of a few short nanorods on the heated Cu400_C sample. From Figure 5.1 (d), nanorods can be seen starting to grow on the heated Cu1800_C sample. From Figure 5.1 (e), high density of nanorods with 2.7µm and 160nm in length and diameter respectively can be seen covering the heated Cu4800_C sample. In general, it can be concluded that the density of the nanorods increases as the thickness of copper increases. TEM studies of the heated Cu400_C sample shows a mixture of CuO and CuCO3 nanoparticles from the measurement of interface distance in the high-resolution TEM images. In Figure 5.1 (f), a lattice spacing of 2.65 Å was obtained from the particle, consistent with the (-1 1 2) spacing of single crystalline CuCO3 Figure 5.1 SEM images of (a) pure carbon paper with inset at higher magnification, (b) heated carbon paper, (c) heated Cu400_C with inset at higher magnification, (d) heated Cu1800_C, (e) heated Cu4800_C, and (f) TEM image of a single CuCO3 nanoparticle From the XRD patterns of the various samples in Figure 5.2(a), the majority of the peaks for all samples correspond to CuO and a distinct CuCO3 peak can be seen at 54.7° for heated Cu400_C. The height of the CuCO3 peak decreases for heated Cu1800_C and is completely suppressed when the thickness of Cu is 4800nm. We can infer from the XRD results that the nanorods seen in the SEM images correspond to CuO nanorods and as the thickness of copper coating increases, CuO nanorods dominate completely. Figure 5.2 (b) shows the XPS O1s spectra of the three samples. The main peak at 530 eV is attributed to CuO [9] and the peak at 531.5 eV can be attributed to CuCO3 [10]. However, there is a possible contribution to the peak at 531.5 eV due to oxygen adsorbed onto the surface of CuO nanorods at 531.6 eV [11] As such, no attempt was made to deconvolute the spectra. Figure 5.2 (c) shows the low kinetic energy part of the UPS spectra for the Cu400_C and Cu4800_C samples measured at normal emission angle. In this measurement, a negative bias of 5V was applied to the sample to eliminate the influence of the analyzer workfunction. From the low energy cutoff in this graph, the workfunction can be determined to be 4.3eV and 4.5eV for the Cu400_C and Cu4800_C sample respectively. This suggests that hybrid CuO and CuCO3 nanosystem has a lower workfunction than CuO and can be attributed to the presence of CuCO3 nanoparticles. The high current density for heated Cu400_C is consistent with measured low workfunction.

Figure 5.3 (a) shows the field emission current density (J) versus applied field (E) for the different samples. To achieve stable measurements, the applied voltage was repeatedly ramped up and down until there were no significant changes in the J-E plot in between the ramps. Field emission tests for pure carbon paper, heated carbon paper and as sputtered copper coated carbon paper showed no measurable field emission. The field required to achieve a field emission current density of 10 µA/cm2 are: 2.05 V/µm for heated Cu400_C, 2.18 V/µm for heated Cu200_C, 2.45 V/µm for heated Cu1800_C, 3.75 V/µm for heated Cu2400_C and 5.18 V/µm for heated Cu4800_C. It can also be observed that the maximum current density in our setup is the highest for the heated Cu400_C sample reaching 1.02 mA/cm2 at a low field of 3.18 V/µm. The maximum current density achievable also decreases as the thickness of copper deviates from the 400nm range. The field emission fluorescence image, however, is not uniform and this could be attributed to the uneven nature of the carbon paper and/or the uneven thickness of materials on the carbon fibers. From FN plots in Figure 5.3 (b), it can also be observed that besides the heated Cu4800_C sample, the rest have two different slopes. The change in the slope indicated turning on of different emitting species and could be due to defects or emitters with different chemical nature or morphology. Using the FN equation [9, 12, 13] 3 αA Bφ 2 ( βE avg ) 2 exp(− ) J= φ βE avg (5.1) Where J is the emission current density (A/cm2), Eavg is the average electric field (V/µm), φ is the workfunction of the emitters (eV), α is the area factor and β is the enhancement factor. A and B are constants and their values are 1.54x10-6 and 6.44x103 respectively. Considering only the best and worst field emitter and from the workfunctions obtained, we determine the enhancement factor: β1 = 2960 in the high E-field region and β2 = 2029 in the low E-field region for the heated Cu400_C sample and β = 1601 for the heated Cu4800_C sample. The area factor α is calculated to be ~1.3x10-2 cm2 and ~5.2x10-4 cm2 for the high E-field region of heated Cu400_C and Cu4800_C respectively. These results suggest that the best field emission performance of heated Cu400_C sample could be attributed to both high enhancement factor and large effective emission area. Furthermore, the enhancement factor and field emitting area decrease as the concentration of CuCO3 decreases. This is contrary to higher aspect ratio having higher enhancement factor [15] and is due to the lower work function of CuCO3 nanoparticles and could also be due to the higher number of defects in these nanoparticles. The higher number of defects present in CuCO3 could also account for the increase in the field emitting area for samples with higher CuCO3 concentration. From these results, we can also conclude that as the copper coating decreases below the 400nm range, the concentration of CuCO3 decreases and thus, leading to a decrease in field emission performance. Table 5.1 shows the turn-on field (defined as the field required to generate 10 µA/cm2) and threshold field (defined as the field required to generate 1 mA/cm2) for hybrid CuO and CuCO3 nanosystem together with selected samples. Samples with * in the threshold field column indicate samples that cannot reach 1mA/cm2 and in place is the maximum current density achievable. From the table, it can be seen that the field emission properties of hybrid CuO and CuCO3 nanosystem is among the better performers compared to many samples.

Field emission tests reveal these hybrid nanosystems as promising field emitter and a potential candidate for future generation field emission devices. References [1] Y. W. Zhu, C. H. Sow, T. Yu, Q.

A custom-made stage is used to measure the field emission properties of the assembled single nanorod and from the data collected, several interesting results are obtained. These findings are then compared with the existing results from the field emission of single CNT. 6.1 Introduction One-dimensional (1D) nanostructures such as nanotubes and nanorods have unique mechanical and electrical properties [1-4] thus, enabling them to find applications in numerous fields [5-8]. One of the main applications for nanostructures is in the area of field emission. One-dimensional (1D) nanostructures are particularly prominent in this area due to their ability to enhance local electric field due to their sharp tips and high aspect ratio [9] as discussed in Chapter 1. In terms of applications, nanorods films are highly suitable but to investigate the physics behind the field emission process, the study of a single nanorod is desirable as it eliminates the contributions from effects such as screening and edge effects found in films. In recent years, field emission properties of single 1D nanostructures have been reported and many studies have been carried out to investigate the field enhancement factor dependence on the electrode distance for single carbon nanotubes (CNTs). However, there appear to be inconsistencies between the studies and the methods of testing the field emission properties of a single 1D nanostructure remains challenging, requiring expensive equipments in some cases. Metal-oxide nanostructures have been shown to be promising field emitters [10-14] and with the combination of easy growth technique [15, 16], they are a source for future field emitters. To date, there are very few reports on the field emission studies of single metal-oxide nanostructures and in this chapter, we report a simple way to assemble single CuO nanorod on a tungsten tip together with its field emission properties and the dependence of its field enhancement factor on the distance between the electrodes. 6.2 Experimental details CuO nanorods were grown by heating a polished copper plate in ambient at 400°C for 7 days. After the growth, the assembly of a single CuO nanorod onto an etched tungsten tip was carried out using a probe station. More details with regards to the process can be found in Chapter 3. In this chapter, we present the field emission properties of 3 CuO nanorods and they are labeled as CuO nanorod (I), CuO nanorod (II) and CuO nanorod (III) respectively. A custom made stage was used in conjunction with the field emission chamber for the field emission tests of the single CuO nanorod. Further details regarding the setup and process can be found in Chapter 3. 6.3 Results and discussions Figure 6.1 (a) shows the optical image of the anode and cathode taken from the camera. Figure 6.1 (b), (c) and (d) shows the SEM image of the CuO nanorod (I), (II) and (III) attached to a tungsten tip respectively. It can be observed that while there were some stray nanorods attached to the main nanorod for CuO nanorod (I) and (II), the tip of the main nanorod was still more than 10µm away from the shorter nanorods and thus, the longer CuO nanorod with length of ~30µm and diameter of ~230nm for I and length ~25µm and diameter ~230nm for II would still be the main contributing factor to the field emission measurements. One interesting observation made during the field emission tests was that the CuO nanorod tends to align itself in the direction of the applied field. This alignment usually took place around the turn-on field region. This further suggests that the main contributing factor would be the longer nanorod.

Figure 6.2 (a), 6.3 (a) and 6.4 (a) shows the graph of measured field emission current (I) vs applied field (E) for various electrode distances for CuO nanorod (I), (II) and (III) with the corresponding FN plots shown in Figure 6.2 (b), 6.3 (b) and 6.4 (b). In determining our electric field strength, we use the voltage divided by the electrode distance (V/d) [17]. It can be observed that as the electric field increases, the maximum field emission current achieved increases too. The Fowler-Nordheim (FN) theory [15, 18, 19] is useful for calculating the enhancement factor β of single field emitter. From the FN equation, β was calculated and plotted against the electrode distance d as shown in Figure 6.2 (c), 6.3 (c) and 6.4 (c). From the β vs d graphs, it can be observed that β decreases and approaches a constant value as d decreases. The inset shows a linear relationship between 1/β and 1/d. It can also be noted from Figure 6.2 (d), 6.3 (d) and 6.4 (d) that the turn on field, ETO (field needed to achieve a field emission current of 1nA) increases as the electrode distance d decreases. These results could be explained by the fact that as the nanorod approaches the cathode, the electric field between the tip of the nanorod and the cathode approximates to that of a parallel plate, eliminating geometric field enhancement thus, β decreases and the field needed to produce 1nA (ETO) increases. As the distance between the nanorod and cathode increases, the geometry of the nanorod comes into play and allows for geometric field enhancement and therefore, β increases and ETO decreases. -10 (a) -20 313µm 297µm 281µm 266µm 250µm 234µm (b) -30 -40 Ln( J/E2) Field emission current, I (nA) 16 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 0.0 0.5 1.0 1.5 -50 313µm 297µm 281µm 266µm 250µm 234µm -60 -70 -80 -90 2.0 2.5 3.0 3.5 4.0 4.5 5.0 0.22 0.24 Applied field, E ( V/µm) 4.4 0.0020 0.0015 6000 5000 4.6 (c) 1/β Enhancement factor, β 7000 4000 3000 0.0010 0.0005 0.0000 0.0032 0.0036 0.0040 0.0044 1/d ( µm-1) 2000 1000 0 220 0.28 0.30 0.32 1/E ( µm/V) Turn on field, ETO ( V/µm) 8000 0.26 (d) 4.2 4.0 3.8 3.6 3.4 3.2 3.0 2.8 2.6 240 260 280 300 320 Electrode distance, d ( µm) 220 240 260 280 300 320 Electrode distance, d ( µm) Figure 6.2 (a) Current vs applied field for various electrode distances (CuO nanorod (I)), (b) corresponding FN plot (offset for clarity), (c) enhancement factor, β vs electrode distance, d with inset showing the relationship between 1/β and 1/d, and (d) linear relationship between ETO and d.

Several models for the relationship between β and d were proposed for individual carbon nanotube field emission. From the work of Vallance and co-workers, β and d followed the modified Miller model where the model consists of a sphere floating between a ground plane and a charged sphere. For this model, β decreases and approaches unity as d becomes very small. This is because the geometry approaches that of two opposing infinite planes when the separation is much smaller than the radius curvature at the cathode tip and the geometric field enhancement is eliminated. As d increases and approaches infinity, β will reach a constant value as it is then dependent only in its geometrical properties [20]. Smith et al. suggested that β is independent of d when the anode to cathode separation is greater than 3 times the height of the emitter away from the tip [21]. The reason being as the anode plate moved away from the CNT tip, the parallel plate approximation decreases and β becomes dependent on its geometrical properties instead of the electrode separation. Bai’s group however, found a linear relationship between β and d [22]. In all cases, the experiments were backed by simulation results. Bonard’s group showed that β followed the Edgcombe and Valdré model saturating at high d [23]. Possible reasons for the discrepancies between the various results could be due to the electrode distance d or the vacuum pressure. Since the various groups conducted the experiments under different electrode distance range, the results obtained are limited by the range and might not be valid outside those range. Under different vacuum pressure, the number of gas molecules between the anode and cathode differs and the probability that an emitted electron colliding with the gas molecules differs as well. Under such circumstances, the field emission current obtained will be different under different vacuum levels. For Bai’s case, the d ranges from 1.2 to 46.8µm and the experiment was carried out at around 10-7 torr. In the case for Vallance, it is from 1.4 to 13.5µm at a pressure of about 3x10-8 torr. Smith performed the experiment for d ranging from 1 to 60µm at a pressure level of Smith et al. 1 - 60 -5 < 10 Single CNT Tip-Tip Not Bonard et al. 0.06 - 5 stated Non linear, saturating at high Single CNT Tip-Tip CNTs on Fe Zhong et al. 700 - 5200 -8 1x10 3h (height of CNT) tip d 1/β linearly proportional to Tip-Flat 1/d Table 6.1 Studies of field emission from CNT/CNTs from various groups From our experiments, the minimum electrode distance was 100µm with the maximum being 375µm thus, the relationships obtained here is most accurate within this range. Owing to our equipments’ limitations, we were unable to increase the electrode distance further as we were unable to detect any field emission current beyond the stated maximum distance. Attempts to perform the field emission test under lower electrode distances have failed as the nanorod dropped off, possibly under the influence of the high field. This was due to the weak bonding between the glue and the nanorod thus, we were unable to detect any current below the minimum stated electrode distance. From the graphs of β vs d, it is clear that as d decreases, β decreases to a constant value. At higher d however, β is also expected to reach a constant value as it is not physically possible for β to approach an infinitely large value as d increases. With β approaching constant values as d decreases to 0 or increases to ∞, ETO is expected to approach constant values at extreme ranges too. 6.4 Conclusion In summary, single CuO nanorod on tungsten tip have been assembled using a simple technique and this technique could be applied to assemble other types of single nanostructures. From their field emission tests, it is observed that β reaches a constant value as d decreases. A linear relationship between 1/β and 1/d is obtained. A linear relationship is also obtained for ETO and d. We propose that β should reach a constant value as d increases and that the linear relationship for ETO is limited to a certain range i.e. ETO should eventually reach a plateau as d increases or decreases. This study provides an understanding on the field emission properties of single metal-oxide nanorod. References [1] M. A. Osman, D. Srivastava, Nanotechnology. 12, 21 (2001) [2] M. F. Yu, O.

Wang, Appl Phys Lett. 80, 2 (2002) Chapter 7 – Conclusions In the first part of the project, vertically oriented CuO nanowires were synthesized by heating a metallic copper on a hotplate in ambient air. It is found that control over the density, length and diameter can be achieved by changing the growth duration or temperature. From the field emission studies of the as-grown CuO nanowires with various physical properties, samples with higher nanowire density and aspect ratio gives the best field emission properties. After the studies on the field emission properties of the as-grown CuO nanowires, focused laser beam patterning was employed to create large scale micro-patterns in the samples. After the 1st laser patterning where micro-platforms are patterned onto the samples, there is a significant improvement in the field emission current density. This is a result of having more emission sites when the exposed sides of the nanowires along the edges of the platforms contribute to the field emission. The 2nd laser patterning process created micro-squares on the 2 samples with highest nanowire density. There is no significant change in the field emission current density for the samples after the 2nd laser patterning process. This suggests that the increase in field emission performance caused by more exposed edges of the micro-square platforms were offset by the reduction in effective emitters such as long nanowires that were truncated in the process. This study shows that good control over the physical properties of the nanowires can be achieved by changing the growth duration or temperature and large scale laser patterning is a feasible method to improve the field emission properties of nanowires films In the second part of the project, we have synthesized a hybrid nanosystem consisting of CuO and CuCO3 nanostructures. Hybrid CuO nanostructures with CuCO3 nanoparticles were grown by simple heating of copper-coated carbon paper in ambient air. Various techniques were used to characterize the samples and the relative concentration of CuCO3 nanoparticles formed can be tuned by varying the thickness of copper on carbon paper. 5 different thickness of copper were coated onto the carbon paper namely: 200nm, 400nm, 1800nm, 2400nm and 4800nm. In general, the concentration of CuCO3 increases as the thickness of the copper decreases until it reaches a maximum at around 400nm and decreases below that. Field emission studies show that the optimum field emission properties, superior to many common field emitters were from the samples with 400nm thick of copper coating and the worst performers were from the 4800nm coated samples. This suggests that samples with the highest concentration of CuCO3 are the best field emitters while samples with the least CuCO3 concentration are the worst. UPS measurements samples with 400nm and 4800nm revealed that samples with 400nm of copper coating has a lower workfunction than that of 4800nm and from Fowler-Nordheim (FN) analysis, the superior field emission properties of the 400nm coated samples could also be attributed to the high enhancement factor and large effective emission area. This is due to the lower work function of CuCO3 nanoparticles and could also be due to the higher number of defects in these nanoparticles. The higher number of defects present in CuCO3 could also account for the increase in the field emitting area for samples with higher CuCO3 concentration. From this study, we have successfully synthesized hybrid CuO-CuCO3 nanosystems by simple heating of copper-coated carbon paper in ambient air and the relative concentrations can be varied by the thickness of copper on carbon paper. Field emission tests reveal these hybrid nanosystems as promising field emitters and potential candidates for future generation field emission devices. In the final part of the project, the field emission properties of single CuO nanorod were investigated. A simple method was used to attach a single CuO nanorod onto an etched tungsten tip. From the field emission studies of the 3 batches of single CuO nanorod, it was observed that as the electric field increases, the maximum field emission current achieved increases. From the FN equation, β is calculated and plotted against the electrode distance d and it can be observed that β decreases and approaches a constant value as d decreases. A linear relationship of 1/β vs 1/d was obtained. Plotting the turn-on field ETO vs d, a linearly decreasing trend was obtained. These observations can be explained by the fact that as the nanorod approaches the cathode, the electric field between the tip of the nanorod and the cathode approximates to that of a parallel plate, eliminating geometric field enhancement thus, β decreases and the field needed to produce 1nA (ETO) increases. As the distance between the nanorod and cathode increases, the geometry of the nanorod comes into play and allows for geometric field enhancement and therefore, β increases and ETO decreases. For future experiments, it is worthwhile to investigate if the direct heating of various metal coated carbon papers would give rise to interesting hybrid nanosystems with good field emission properties. In addition, the study of the field emission properties of more single metal-oxide nanorods will provide us with a better understanding of how β and ETO varies with d for various materials and if a general trend can be observed.
