Abstract

Using a simple method of direct heating of bulk copper plates in air, oriented CuO nanowire films were synthesized on a large scale. The length and density of nanowires could be controlled by growth temperature and growth time. Field emission (FE) measurements of CuO nanowire films show that they have a low turn-on field of 3.5–4.5 V µm −1 and a large current density of 0.45 mA cm −2 under an applied field of about 7 V µm −1 . By comparing the FE properties of two types of samples with different average lengths and densities (30 µm, 10 8 cm −2 and 4 µm, 4 × 10 7 cm −2 , respectively), we found that the large length–radius ratio of CuO nanowires effectively improved the local field, which was beneficial to field emission. Verified with finite element calculation, the work function of oriented CuO nanowire films was estimated to be 2.5–2.8 eV.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
