摘要
Planar SiC/Si heterostructures were formed by high dose carbon implantation using a metal vapor vacuum are ion source. The variations of the field emission properties with the implant dose and annealing conditions were studied A remarkably low turn-on field of IV/mu m was observed from a sample implanted at 35 keV to a dose of 1.0x10(18) cm(-2) with subsequent annealing in nitrogen at 1200 degrees C for 2h. The chemical composition depth profiles were determined from x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and the surface morphology was observed by atomic force microscopy. The formation of a thin surface stoichiometric SiC layer and the formation of densely distributed small protrusions on the surface are believed to be the two factors responsible for the efficient electron field emission.
