Mechanical Properties of ZnO Nanowires
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 ...

Surface effects on the piezoelectricity of ZnO nanowires [PDF]
We utilize classical molecular dynamics to study surface effects on the piezoelectric properties of ZnO nanowires as calculated under uniaxial loading. An important point to our work is that we have utilized two types of surface treatments, those of charge compensation and surface passivation, to eliminate the polarization divergence that otherwise ...

Structural and gas-sensing properties of CuO–CuxFe3−xO4 nanostructured thin films [PDF]
Nanocrystalline CuO–CuxFe3−xO4 thin films were developed using a radio-frequency sputtering method followed by a thermal oxidation process. Thin films were deposited applying two very different conditions by varying the argon pressure and the target-to ...

Electronic Structure, Optical and Sensor Properties of ZnO Nanowires [PDF]
Density functional theory calculations of structural, electronic and optical properties of nanowires ZnO were performed. The obtained results are showing that the band gap increase with the decrease of the ZnO nanowire size.
