The nitridation of ZnO nanowires [PDF]
Nanoscale Research Letters, 2012 ZnO nanowires (NWs) with diameters of 50 to 250 nm and lengths of several micrometres have been grown by reactive vapour transport via the reaction of Zn with oxygen on 1 nm Au/Si(001) at 550°C under an inert flow of Ar. These exhibited clear peaks in the X-ray diffraction corresponding to the hexagonal wurtzite crystal structure of ZnO and a ...

Nanofabrication on ZnO nanowires [PDF]
Applied Physics Letters, 2006 ZnO nanowires were subjected to convergent electron beam irradiation in a 300kV transmission electron microscope. The size of perforated hexagonal pores generated by irradiation can vary with the beam size. An irradiated area is denuded layer by layer via removal of Zn and O atoms. The polar ZnO surfaces have a higher resistance to irradiation than the

Surface excitonic emission and quenching effects in ZnO nanowire/nanowall systems: limiting effects on device potential. [PDF]
, 2006 We report ZnO nanowire/nanowall growth using a two-step vapour phase transport method on a-plane sapphire. X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy data establish that the nanostructures are vertically well-aligned with c-axis normal to the ...

Mechanical Properties of ZnO Nanowires
Physical Review Letters, 2008 Semiconductor nanowires are unique as functional building blocks in nanoscale electrical and electromechanical devices. Here, we report on the mechanical properties of ZnO nanowires that range in diameter from 18 to 304 nm. We demonstrate that in contrast to recent reports, Young's modulus is essentially independent of diameter and close to the bulk ...

Photoluminescence of ZnO Nanowires: A Review [PDF]
Nanomaterials, 2020 One-dimensional ZnO nanostructures (nanowires/nanorods) are attractive materials for applications such as gas sensors, biosensors, solar cells, and photocatalysts. This is due to the relatively easy production process of these kinds of nanostructures with excellent charge carrier transport properties and high crystalline quality.
