Abstract

Ga2O3 nanowires with very narrow width (~30 nm) were fabricated from precursor gallium metal via a self-catalytic vapour–liquid–solid method using sol–gel derived Ga2O3 thin films as substrates. The morphological evolution of Ga2O3 nanostructures has been analysed by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The field-emission (FE) properties of Ga2O3 nanowires are recorded and the turn-on field is found to be 1.88 V µm-1. It is shown from the I–t plot that the emission current remains nearly constant over 2 h at the pre-set current value of 1 µA. The average emission current at the stabilized value is seen to be fairly constant suggesting that the Ga2O3 nanowires are potentially important for applications in FE based devices.
