摘要
The silicon nano-crystalline (nc-Si) film is fabricated on <100> orientation,0.01Ω·cm resistivity,and p-type boron-doped silicon wafer by the anodic etching.The microstructure and the orientation of nc-Si are examined by the scanning electron microscopy,transmission electron microscopy,and X-ray diffraction spectroscopy,respectively.The average size of particle is estimated by Raman spectroscopy.The results show that the particle size of nc-Si film is scattered from 10nm to 20nm,the alignment is compact,the orientation is uniform,the expansion of lattice constant is negligible,and mechanical robustness and stability are good.The correlations between film structure and the experiment parameters such as etching time,HF concentration,and etching current density are discussed.As a potential application,efficient field emission is observed from the nc-Si film,and the turn-on field is about 3V/μm at 0.1μA/cm 2 of current density,which is close to carbon nanotube film's.
