| Abstract: | We have synthesized well-aligned, uniform carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in large area at low temperature of 500 °C using microwave plasma- enhanced chemical vapor deposition on silicon and Coming glass 7059. This is a two-step process in that ion beam sputtering deposition was used to deposit iron catalyst thin films and followed by hydrogen plasma pretreatment to form nano-size Fe particles before the CNTs growth at the second step. The thickness of Fe catalyst thin film was found to be the most important factor in the low temperature CNTs growth process. Systematic control of the length, diameter, and alignment of the CNTs has been achieved by changing the deposition parameters such us microwave power, pressure, temperature and the thickness of Fe catalyst. High resolution SEM and TEM were used to characterize the morphology and structure of the nanotubes. Field emission measurement showed a low mm on field (6.2 V/ m) and high emission current density (0.1 mA/cm² at 9 V/ m) for the films grown at low temperature of 500 °C. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
