摘要
A method of fabricating selenium(Se) microwire is demonstrated.A multimaterial fiber with amorphous selenium(a-Se) core and multicomponent phosphate glass cladding is drawn by using a conventional optical fiber drawing technique.Then the a-Se core of the fiber is crystallized by a post thermal process at 150 ℃.After the multicomponent phosphate glass cladding is stripped from the multimaterial fiber by marinating the fiber in HF acid solution,a crystalline selenium(c-Se)microwire with high uniformity and smooth surface is obtained.Based on microstructure measurements,the c-Se microwire is identified to consist of most hexagonal state particles and very few trigonal state whiskers.The good photoconduction property of c-Se microwire with high quality and longer continuous length makes it possible to apply to functional devices and arrays.
