We report a novel Al2O3 nanoparticle-decorated tubular SiC nanostructure, which shows a remarkable enhanced field emission property with low turn-on and threshold field. The formation of Al2O3 nanoparticle-decorated tubular SiC on Si substrates is achieved in one-step via simple heating evaporation process for the first time. The nanostructure consists of tubular SiC and the Al2O3 nanoparticles, which homogeneously decorate on the surface of the tubular SiC with an average diameter of 7.8 nm and narrow diameter distribution. Moreover, compared with the same density and sized bare tubular SiC, the Al2O3 nanoparticle-decorated tubular SiC nanostructure has an obvious reduction in turn-on (from 8.8 to 2.4 V μm−1) and threshold field (from 23.5 to 5.37 V μm−1). The very low turn-on and threshold field is also comparable to that of carbon nanotubes, which indicates the Al2O3 nanoparticle-decorated tubular SiC is of huge potential application in future field emission display devices.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
