Description

Preparation method of metal oxide nanotube and metal oxide nanotube
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of nano materials, in particular to a preparation method of a metal oxide nanotube and the metal oxide nanotube.
Background
Metal oxide nanotubes have been used in a variety of fields, such as biosensors and dye-sensitized solar cells, based on their unique one-dimensional hollow structure. The length of the metal oxide nanotubes has a significant impact on their precise control in various applications.
At present, the main preparation method of the metal oxide nanotube is an anodic oxidation method, for example, a titanium oxide nanotube array is prepared by the anodic oxidation method. In the preparation process, titanium and titanium dioxide are dissolved mainly under the action of an electric field, so that titanium metal at the anode is self-organized to form an ordered porous structure, namely a titanium oxide nanotube array.
The preparation process of the anodic oxidation method is uncontrollable, and the length of the metal oxide nanotube prepared by the method is small and generally limited to be less than micrometers.
Disclosure of Invention
The embodiment of the invention provides a preparation method of a metal oxide nanotube and the metal oxide nanotube, which can improve the length of the metal oxide nanotube.
The embodiment of the invention provides a preparation method of a metal oxide nanotube, which comprises the following steps:
setting a slit on a substrate;
heating the substrate to 900-1005 ℃ by taking metal nano particles as a catalyst, and controlling a mixed gas consisting of a carbon source gas, hydrogen and water vapor to flow through the heated substrate so as to grow a 1-10 cm carbon nano tube in the middle of the slit on the substrate;
preheating the carbon nano tube at 250-350 ℃;
under the protection of the atmosphere of gas which does not participate in the reaction, metal oxide is deposited on the surface of the preheated carbon nano tube to form at least one layer of metal oxide film;
the carbon nano tube and at least one layer of metal oxide film deposited on the surface of the carbon nano tube form the metal oxide nano tube.
In the method for preparing the metal oxide nanotube, the centimeter-sized ultra-long carbon nanotube is prepared by a chemical vapor deposition method, and then the metal oxide film is deposited on the surface of the prepared ultra-long carbon nanotube, so that the metal oxide film wraps the whole carbon nanotube to form the centimeter-sized metal oxide nanotube, and the length of the oxide nanotube is greatly improved. Due to the increase of the length of the oxide nanotube, the prepared oxide nanotube can be used for fine application scenes of electronics, micro-nano machines and the like.
And in the preparation process, the carbon nano tube is preheated at 250-350 ℃ to remove gas and other impurities adsorbed on the carbon nano tube, so that when metal oxide is deposited on the surface of the carbon nano tube, the formed metal oxide film is regular and has fewer structural defects.
The substrate for growing the carbon nanotubes is generally a silicon substrate, and the process of arranging the slits on the substrate can be realized by the following method:
a certain number of slits are carved on the substrate by utilizing a photoetching method, or a plurality of substrates with smaller sizes are adhered on the surface of a substrate with larger size, and then the slits among the substrates with smaller sizes are the slits.
In addition, the metal nanoparticles may be any one of Fe, Mo, Cu, and Cr nanoparticles.
The preparation process of the metal nanoparticles can be as follows: coating ethanol solution or water solution of metal chloride of any one of Fe, Mo, Cu and Cr on a substrate, then placing the substrate in a reactor, heating the reactor to 800-1000 ℃, and then introducing hydrogen or mixed gas of hydrogen and inert gas into the reactor for reduction reaction to prepare the metal nano-particles.
Because the preparation technology of the carbon nano tube is developed completely, the operation process for preparing the metal oxide nano tube based on the carbon nano tube is very simple, the conditions are suitable, and the growth speed of the metal oxide on the surface of the carbon nano tube is higher, so that the metal oxide nano tube is favorable for producing the metal oxide nano tube in batch quickly.
Optionally, after growing the carbon nanotube in the middle of the slit on the substrate, before the preheating the carbon nanotube, the method further includes:
placing a solid metal oxide and the carbon nano tubes in the same segmented temperature-controlled reactor, wherein the solid metal oxide is placed in a first heating area of the segmented temperature-controlled reactor, and the carbon nano tubes are placed in a second heating area of the segmented temperature-controlled reactor;
the preheating the carbon nanotube comprises: and controlling the temperature of the second heating area to be 250-350 ℃.
Optionally, the metal oxide is deposited on the surface of the carbon nanotube after preheating, and the method includes:
controlling the temperature of the first heating area to be 500-800 ℃, sublimating the solid metal oxide into gaseous metal oxide, and conveying the gaseous metal oxide in the first heating area to the second heating area by using the gas which does not participate in the reaction;
and controlling the temperature of the second heating area to be 450-750 ℃, further heating the preheated carbon nano tube, and keeping the gaseous metal oxide in contact with the carbon nano tube for 10-30 min.
Optionally, the controlling the temperature of the second heating zone to be 450 ℃ to 750 ℃ includes: and controlling the temperature of the second heating area to be 500-700 ℃.
The deposition of the metal oxide on the surface of the carbon nano tube is controlled in a segmented temperature control reactor (a tubular furnace with a segmented temperature control function and the like), so that the segmented temperature control of the solid metal oxide and the carbon nano tube is facilitated, and the operation is convenient. After the solid metal oxide is sublimated into the gaseous metal oxide in the first heating area, the gaseous metal oxide is conveyed to the second heating area by utilizing gas which does not participate in the reaction, and meanwhile, the temperature of the second heating area is increased, and is slightly higher than that of the first heating area, so that the gaseous metal oxide with higher temperature from the first heating area can be deposited on the carbon nano tube more easily. Because the deposition process is carried out under the protection of the atmosphere of gas which does not participate in the reaction, the concentration of the gaseous metal oxide is lower, so that the metal oxide is easier to deposit on the carbon nano tube as a metal oxide film instead of a crystal. In addition, the contact time of the carbon nano tube and the gaseous metal oxide is controlled to be less than 30min, so that the phenomenon that the metal oxide is deposited on the carbon nano tube to form a two-dimensional layered crystal structure due to overlong time is avoided.
Optionally, the gas not participating in the reaction comprises: the flow rate of argon or mixed gas of argon and hydrogen is 20 ml/min-100 ml/min, and when the gas not participating in the reaction is the mixed gas of argon and hydrogen, the volume part ratio of the hydrogen to the argon is 0.05-1.
Controlling the flow rate of the gas not participating in the reaction can control the concentration of the gaseous metal oxide, thereby being beneficial to the generation of the metal oxide film. The mixed gas of hydrogen and argon is used as the gas which does not participate in the reaction, and the hydrogen can react with part of oxygen remained in the reactor, so that the damage of the oxygen to the structure of the carbon nano tube at high temperature is avoided, and the structural integrity of the metal oxide nano tube is further improved.
Optionally, the metal oxide comprises: any one of molybdenum oxide, zinc oxide, or tungsten oxide.
In this embodiment, the sublimation temperature of the selected metal oxide is low, for example, the sublimation temperature of molybdenum oxide is about 500 ℃, the sublimation temperature of zinc oxide is about 800 ℃, and the sublimation temperature of tungsten oxide is about 700 ℃, which facilitates the vaporization of the metal oxide. Furthermore, the layer material such as molybdenum oxide has high rigidity and high bending energy, and is difficult to form an ultrafine nanotube structure with a diameter of about 10 nm. The surface energy can be reduced by utilizing the adsorption property of the surface of the carbon nano tube, and the formation of the metal oxide nano tube is assisted.
Meanwhile, molybdenum oxide, zinc oxide and tungsten oxide all have good surface properties, and molybdenum oxide is an n-type semiconductor for example, and oxygen vacancies and heteroatoms on the surface of the molybdenum oxide can adsorb oxygen species in the air, so that the electrophilicity of the surface can be improved. And the increase of the surface energy level can trap electrons in a semiconductor conduction band, namely, the electrical property of the material can be changed. Meanwhile, it can adsorb other gases, thereby adjusting the electrical property. Through the test of the electrical property, the component in the gas environment can be sensed. After the metal oxide nanotube structure is formed, the specific surface area can be greatly increased, and is higher than that of a two-dimensional crystal structure of molybdenum oxide, so that the adsorption performance of the material is enhanced. Molybdenum oxide nanotubes to trace amounts of NO2、CO、CH4The gases have good sensitivity and selectivity. Therefore, the molybdenum oxide nanotube is a gas sensitive material with great potential.
In addition, the metal oxide nanotube film can be formed by preparing the molybdenum oxide nanotube with a carbon nanotube array with a larger density or directly doping and compounding the carbon nanotube structure in the molybdenum oxide film. The formed molybdenum oxide nanotube film can be used as a hole transport layer of a solar cell, and the transport performance of the transport layer can be improved due to the nanostructure of the molybdenum oxide nanotube film.
The embodiment of the invention also provides a metal oxide nanotube, which comprises: carbon nanotubes and at least one layer of metal oxide film; wherein the content of the first and second substances,
the at least one layer of metal oxide film is deposited on the surface of the carbon nano tube;
the length of the carbon nano tube is 1 cm-10 cm.
Optionally, the diameter of the carbon nanotube is 1nm to 4 nm.
Optionally, the thickness of each metal oxide thin film is 0.5nm to 1.3 nm.
Optionally, the composition of the metal oxide thin film comprises: any one of molybdenum oxide, zinc oxide, or tungsten oxide.
Optionally, the diameter of the metal oxide nanotube is 2nm to 15 nm;
optionally, the metal oxide nanotubes have a lattice orientation; wherein the [001] crystal orientation of the crystal lattice in the metal oxide thin film is the same as the axial direction of the carbon nanotube, that is, the [001] crystal orientation of the crystal lattice is always along the axial direction of the carbon nanotube.
The embodiment of the invention provides a preparation method of a metal oxide nanotube and the metal oxide nanotube, wherein a centimeter-level ultra-long carbon nanotube is prepared in a chemical vapor deposition mode, and then a metal oxide film is deposited on the surface of the prepared ultra-long carbon nanotube, so that the metal oxide film wraps the whole carbon nanotube to form the centimeter-level metal oxide nanotube, and the length of the oxide nanotube is greatly improved.
