Abstract: Aluminum nitride (AlN) thin films were prepared by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) at different substrate-target distance and substrate temperature. The field emission (FE) measurement showed that the FE current increases firstly and then decreases with increasing the substrate-target distance or substrate temperature. The films with the best FE properties appear at the substrate-target distance 5.5 cm or substrate temperature is 850 ℃. The substrate-target distance and substrate temperature determine the mobility of target particles on the substrate, therefore influence the surface morphology and microstructure, such as defects and compactness and so on, then effect greatly the FE properties. It suggests that for AlN films prepared by PLD, altering the process parameters properly is needed for modulating the kinetic energy of target particles on the substrate to get surface morphology and microstructure which is suitable for better FE.
