摘要
Electron field emission properties of vertically aligned Si nanowires, synthesized by chemically etching p-type Si wafers with different etching times were investigated in detail. Fabrication of Si nanowires was confirmed by field emission scanning electron microscopic investigation. It was observed that a thin layer of amorphous carbon coating over the grown Si nanowires enhanced the field emission properties significantly. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
