preparation example Construction

[0024] The invention provides a preparation method with a heterojunction (nitrogen-doped / undoped) carbon nanotube vertical array structure, which is prepared by a chemical vapor deposition method, comprising the following steps:

[0025] (1) Cleaning of the growth substrate: First, the Si substrate or SiO X / Si substrate (the surface of the Si substrate is covered with a layer of amorphous SiO X ) were ultrasonically cleaned in ethanol, acetone, and ethanol for 10 minutes, then rinsed with ethanol, and washed with high-purity N 2 Air dry the substrate surface.

[0026] (2) Preparation of catalyst film by ion sputtering: ionized Ar ions are used to bombard the surface of the target to deposit a film on the substrate, and the substrate is at room temperature during the coating process. The coating speed is adjustable, and the film thickness is measured by the device's quartz sensor.

[0027] (3) The chemical vapor deposition furnace is heated to the catalyst pretreatment temp...
