Bicrystalline zinc oxide nanowires
نویسندگان
چکیده
Bicrystalline ZnO nanowires synthesized are composed of two crystals that form a twin structure parallel to the (0 1 1 4) plane with a growth direction closely parallel to [0 1 1 1] and the (2 1 1 0) side facet. The twin structure is suggested to be a key factor in leading the axial growth of the nanowire. The photoluminescence spectra of the nanowires show a weak UV emission at 385 nm and a strong green emission at 495 nm. The green emission intensity of the nanowires depends on the different level of oxygen vacancies in the ZnO nanowires. 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

متن کاملZnO Nanowires Synthesized by Vapor Phase Transport Deposition on Transparent Oxide Substrates
Zinc oxide nanowires have been synthesized without using metal catalyst seed layers on fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) substrates by a modified vapor phase transport deposition process using a double-tube reactor. The unique reactor configuration creates a Zn-rich vapor environment that facilitates formation and growth of zinc oxide nanoparticles and wires (20-80 nm in diameter, up to 6 μm in le...

Crystalline zinc tin oxide (ZTO; zinc oxide with heavy tin doping of 33 at.%) nanowires were first synthesized using the electrodeposition and heat treatment method based on an anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) membrane, which has an average diameter of about 60 nm. According to the field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) results, the synthesized ZTO nanowires are highly ordered and have...
