Microwave oven fabricated hybrid memristor devices for non-volatile memory storage [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
© 2014 IOP Publishing Ltd. Novel hybrid non-volatile memories made using an ultra-fast microwave heating method are reported for the first time. The devices, consisting of aligned ZnO nanorods embedded in poly (methyl methacrylate), require no forming ...

Vibration of Piezoelectric ZnO-SWCNT Nanowires [PDF]

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2016
A hybrid nanowire (HNW) was constructed by coating a single-wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) with piezoelectric zinc oxide (ZnO). The two components of the HNW interact with each other via the van der Waals (vdW) force. This paper aims to study the effect of the piezoelectricity in the ZnO layer and the inter-phase vdW interaction on the fundamental ...

Nanostructured semiconductor materials for dye-sensitized solar cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Since O'Regan and Grätzel's first report in 1991, dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) appeared immediately as a promising low-cost photovoltaic technology.

Electronic, Mechanical, and Piezoelectric Properties of ZnO Nanowires

open access: yes, 2006
Hexagonal [0001] nonpassivated ZnO nanowires are studied with density functional calculations. The band gap and Young's modulus in nanowires which are larger than those in bulk ZnO increase along with the decrease of the radius of nanowires.

Broadband ZnO Single Nanowire Light Emitting Diode [PDF]

open access: yesIntegrated Photonics Research and Applications/Nanophotonics, 2006
We present a novel technique for reliable electrical injection into single semiconductor nanowires for light-emitting diodes and lasers. The method makes use of a high-resolution negative electron-beam resist and direct electron-beam patterning for the precise fabrication of a metallic top contact along the length of the nanowire, while a planar ...

Bottle-brush-shaped heterostructures of NiO-ZnO nanowires: growth study and sensing properties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We present here heterostructured ZnO-NiO nanowires, constituted by a core of single crystalline ZnO nanowires, covered by poly-crystalline NiO nanorods.

Detection mechanism in highly sensitive ZnO nanowires network gas sensors

open access: yes, 2019
Metal-oxide nanowires are showing a great interest in the domain of gas sensing due to their large response even at a low temperature, enabling low-power gas sensors.

Superhydrophobic supported Ag-NPs@ZnO-nanorods with photoactivity in the visible range [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In this article we present a new type of 1D nanostructures consisting of supported hollow ZnO nanorods (NRs) decorated with Ag nanoparticles (NPs). The 3D reconstruction by high-angle annular dark field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF ...

Graphene coated ZnO nanowire optical waveguides

open access: yesOptics Express, 2014
We report the fabrication and characterization of freestanding graphene coated ZnO nanowires (GZNs) for optical waveguiding. The GZNs are fabricated using a tape-assist transfer under micromanipulation. Owing to the deep-subwavelength diameter and high index contrast of the ZnO nanowire waveguide, light-graphene interaction is significantly enhanced by

Surface Effects on the Piezoelectricity of ZnO Nanowires

open access: yes, 2012
We utilize classical molecular dynamics to study surface effects on the piezoelectric properties of ZnO nanowires as calculated under uniaxial loading.
