Synthesis of Oriented ZnO Nanofibers Using Electrospun Method on Si (100) Substrate

Abstract:

ZnO nanofibers on Si (100) were synthesized by electrospun and calcination process. The morphology, structure and optical performance were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy and photoluminescence (PL) spectrum. XRD results indicated ZnO nanofibers on Si (100) wafer calcined at 600 °C had a preferred growth orientation of (002) direction. ZnO nanofibers calcinated at 600 °C had an excellent crystalline structure with the diameters ranging from 70 to 150 nm. Defect states in the ZnO nanofibers were observed, which resulted in the green emission in PL spectrum.
