Raman and Photoluminescence Properties of ZnO Nanorods with Wurtzite Structure

Article Preview

Abstract:

Raman, resonant Raman and photoluminescence (PL) properties of ZnO nanorods that produced by simple solution chemical process are reported in this paper. The transmission electron microscopy measurements show that the obtained ZnO nanorods have well-proportioned distribution with diameters about 30 nm, and the maximal lengths up to more than 2.2 μm. The micro-Raman and resonant Raman spectrum of nanorods show the obvious differences from that of the commercial bulk phase ZnO samples. The PL with intense UV emission indicates the good quality of the obtained ZnO nanorods.
