Electric-field-assisted assembly of perpendicularly oriented nanorod superlattices.

چکیده
We observe the assembly of CdS nanorod superlattices by the combination of a DC electric field and solvent evaporation. In each electric-field (1 V/microm) assisted assembly, CdS nanorods (5 nm x 30 nm) suspended initially in toluene were observed to align perpendicular to the substrate. Azimuthal alignment along the nanorod crystal faces and the presence of stacking faults indicate that both 2D and 3D assemblies were formed by a process of controlled super crystal growth.

In this study, we report the concerted fabrication process, which is easy to transform the size of active emitting area and produce polarized surface light, using the electric-field-assisted assembly for horizontally assembled many tiny nanorod LEDs between two metal electrodes. We fabricate the millions of individually separated 1D nanorod LEDs from 2D nanorod arrays using nanosphere lithograp...
متن کاملAssembling Ordered Nanorod Superstructures and Their Application as Microcavity Lasers
Herein we report the formation of multi-layered arrays of vertically aligned and close packed semiconductor nanorods in perfect registry at a substrate using electric field assisted assembly. The collective properties of these CdSexS1-x nanorod emitters are harnessed by demonstrating a relatively low amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) threshold and a high net optical gain at medium pump inten...
متن کاملDirected orientation of asymmetric composite dumbbells by electric field induced assembly.
Assembly and directed orientation of anisotropic particles with an external ac electric field in a range from 1 kHz to 2 MHz were studied for asymmetric composite dumbbells incorporating a silica, titania, or titania/silica (titania:silica = 75:25 vol %) sphere. The asymmetric composite dumbbells, which were composed of a polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA)-coated sphere (core-shell part) and a polys...

This paper reports direct growth of [001] ZnO nanorod arrays on ITO substrate from aqueous solution with electric field assisted nucleation, followed with thermal annealing. X-ray diffraction analyses revealed that nanorods have wurtzite crystal structure. The diameter of ZnO nanorods was 60–300 nm and the length was up to 2.5 μm depending on the growth condition. Photoluminescence spectra show...

Bloch oscillation in electrically biased semiconductor superlattices offers broadband terahertz gain from DC up to the Bloch frequency and can provide a basis for solid-state electronic oscillators operating at 10 times the frequency of existing devices. To circumvent the inherent instability of the electrically biased doped superlattices to the formation of static or dynamic electric field dom...
