Title: | Temperature-dependent photoluminescence and electron field emission properties of AlN nanotip arrays | Authors: | Ji, XH Zhang, QY Lau, SP Jiang, HX Lin, JY |
Issue Date: | 2009 | Source: | Applied physics letters, 2009, v. 94, no. 17, 173106, p. 173106-1-173106-3 | Abstract: | Large-scale single-crystalline AlN nanotip arrays have been fabricated via a facile catalysis-free approach using AlCl3 powder and NH3 as starting materials. These nanotips exhibit an intense broad ultraviolet emission centered at 3.28 eV. The field emission features a notable electron current with a low turn-on field. The turn-on and threshold electric field are found to decrease substantially from 7.7 to 3.9 V/μm and 7.9 to 4.1 V/μm, respectively, while the estimated field enhancement factor increases from 483 to 1884 with increasing the ambient-temperature from room temperature to 573 K. The dependence of the photoluminescence and electron field emission with temperature and the possible mechanism involved has systematically been investigated and thus discussed. | Publisher: | American Institute of Physics | Journal: | Applied physics letters | ISSN: | 0003-6951 | EISSN: | 1077-3118 | DOI: | 10.1063/1.3126055 | Rights: | © 2009 American Institute of Physics.
