Abstract

The invention provides a silicon-based filed emission cathode material with a low threshold electric field and a preparation method thereof. The silicon-based filed emission cathode material can be GaN, AlN, BN, ZnO and ZnS and is characterized in that direct band gap semiconductor with the band gap width ranged from 3eV to 7eV can form a hexagonal wurtzite structure, and the material preferentially grows along the (002) crystal direction of the hexagonal wurtzite structure; the thickness thereof is more than 20mm and less than 50mm; and the material simultaneously has a hexagonal phase and an amorphous phase. The preparation method of the silicon-based filed emission cathode material comprises the following steps of carrying out laser pulse on a substrate which is silicon to deposit a film with certain thickness respectively through pretreatment and HF acid soaking so as to obtain a final product. A preparation technology is simple and easy, the prepared material has the low threshold electric field and electronic emission characteristics with high emission current density, and the cathode structure takes silicon as the substrate and can be integrated with other microelectronic devices easily; therefore, the cathode is an ideal cathode for manufacturing a vacuum microelectronic device.
