Fabrication and Optical Properties of ZnO Quantum Dots

Article Preview

Abstract:

Using a simple process of the deposition of ZnO thin films on SiOx/Si substrates and subsequent thermal annealing, we fabricated ZnO quantum dots embedded in silicon oxide matrix. The ZnO quantum dots were characterized using transmission electron microscopy and timeintegrated photoluminescence. The photoluminescence of the quantum dots show a blue-shift of 47 meV due to the quantum confinement effect.
