Microwave-assisted synthesis of c-axis oriented ZnO nanorods on a glass substrate coated with ZnO film
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 February 2011
Abstract
ZnO nanorods synthesis on a glass substrate coated with ZnO film was performed by means of microwave-assisted heating. Nanorod structure was dependent on the underlying ZnO films; slightly tilted nanorods about 800nm diameter were synthesized on an as-sputtered ZnO film while highly c-axis oriented ones about 100nm diameter were developed on the ZnO film after annealing. Photoluminescence spectra of the ZnO nanorods at 6K showed a badedge excitonic emission with comparable intensity to a visible defect related emission, suggesting the existence of many radiative defects which would be originated from insufficient quality of the underlying ZnO layer. Pattered photoresist layer can successfully be utilized for synthesis of the ZnO nanolods in selective area.
