  • Title: Charge influence and growth mechanism of ZnO nanorods.
    Author: Park SH, Han SW.
    Journal: J Nanosci Nanotechnol; 2007 Jul; 7(7):2526-9. PubMed ID: 17663276.
    Abstract:
    We demonstrate the influence of charges near the substrate surface on vertically aligned ZnO nanorod growth. ZnO nanorods were fabricated on n-type GaN with and without H+ treatments by catalyst-free metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. The ZnO nanorods grown on n-GaN films were vertically well-aligned and had a well-ordered wurtzite structure. However, the ZnO did not form into nanorods and the crystal quality was very degraded as they were deposited on the H+ treated n-GaN films. The charge influence was also observed in the ZnO nanorod growth on sapphire substrates. These results implied that the charges near the substrate surface dominantly affected on the crystallization and formation of ZnO nanorods.
