铜掺杂氧化锌纳米棒的非线性光学响应竞争特性

利用飞秒脉冲激光激发Cu掺杂ZnO纳米棒,研究其特有的非线性光学性质和激发机制。在激发波长为750 nm的荧光光谱中,二次谐波峰非常弱,几乎可以忽略,存在非常强的激子发光峰和Cu掺杂导致缺陷发光峰。激发强度的增大会导致这两个发光峰强度呈非线性增大,激子发光峰位产生明显红移,而缺陷发光峰位没有变化。进一步增大激发强度,缺陷发光峰强度会出现饱和甚至有所下降,而激子发光峰强度持续增大。当激发波长增加到760 nm时,从样品的荧光光谱可以清楚地识别到二次谐波峰和激子发光峰以及缺陷发光峰并存。随着激发波长的进一步增加,二次谐波强度不断增大,而激子发光峰和缺陷发光峰的强度却随之下降。当激发波长为790 nm和800 nm时,未发现激子发光峰和缺陷发光峰,非线性光谱以二次谐波为主导。研究结果表明,通过选择合适的激发波长和激发强度,可以实现发光颜色的转变,使得Cu掺杂ZnO纳米棒在全光显示方面具有潜在的发展前景。     

纳米氧化锌粉体的制备及发光性质的研究

采用沉淀法制备纳米ZnO粉体，探讨了晶粒尺寸与反应浓度和热处理温度的关系，并对所得到的纳米ZnO粉体的发光性质进行了研究，对不同温度热处理的样品的发光性质做了比较。ZnO的可见发光机制的解释一直未有定论。一部分作者认为绿光是由氧空位引起的；另一部分认为是锌空位造成的。本文的实验结果揭示了可见发光的内部过程，肯定了双声子参与的发光过程，支持了绿色是由锌空位造成的这一观点。此外，用230nm以下波长激发样品时，可见发光的行为明显不同于用325nm以上的波长去激发同一样品时的发光情形。实验表明高能激发，样品能发白光，因此，用ZnO做白光二极管是可能实现的。

In掺杂的ZnO纳米棒的共振Raman光谱研究

本文报道In掺杂ZnO纳米棒的成功制备和对其结构以及光荧光性能的详尽研究。在室温条件下ZnO的共振拉曼谱线容易受到很强的荧光干扰, 甚至导致共振拉曼谱线完全被湮没。微量In掺杂入ZnO纳米棒中, 调控紫外发光峰由378 nm(纯ZnO)红移至397 nm; 另外, 在制备过程中引入过量的氧, 在样品中产生大量缺陷, 降低了ZnO的紫外近带边发光峰强度。这两方面导致在室温下可清楚的观察到In掺杂ZnO纳米棒的6阶LO拉曼峰。

Influence of the morphology of ZnO nanostructures on luminescent and photovoltaic properties

Arrays of ZnO nanorods and nanoplates are synthesized by the hydrothermal and electrochemical methods, respectively. The photoluminescence spectra indicate that the nanoplates have a more defective structure than the nanorods. The obtained ZnO nanostructures are used as the basis to construct dye-sensitized solar cells. The influence of morphology and defectiveness of ZnO nanostructures on the luminescent and photovoltaic properties of the cells is studied.     

ZnO nanorods/plates on Si substrate grown by low-temperature hydrothermal reaction

The zinc oxide (ZnO) nanorods/plates are obtained via hydrothermal method assisted by etched porous Al film on Si substrate. The products consist of nanorods with average diameter of 100 nm and nanoplates with thickness of 200-300 nm, which are uniformly distributed widely and grown perpendicularly to the substrate. The ZnO nanoplates with thickness of 150-300 nm were grown on Si substrate coated with a thin continuous Al film (without etching) in the same aqueous solution. The growth mechanism and room temperature photoluminescence (PL) properties of ZnO nanorods/plates and nanoplates were investigated. It is found that the introduction of the etched Al film plays a key role in the formation of ZnO nanorods/plates. The annealing process is favorable to enhance the UV PL emissions of the ZnO nanorods/plates.     

Observation of quantum confinement in ZnO nanorods fabricated using a two-temperature growth method

We observed a quantum confinement effect in vertically well-aligned ultrafine ZnO nanorods using polarized excitation photoluminescence measurements. Room-temperature and low-temperature photoluminescence spectra revealed that free excitons were confined in the nanorods. The magnitude of the energy shift due to the quantum confinement in the ultrafine ZnO nanorods was 6 meV at room temperature, which corresponded to the luminescence from ZnO nanorods 12.8 nm in diameter. The diameter estimated from the spectra was comparable to the value measured from SEM images.

Controllable vertically aligned ZnO nanorods on flexible polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) substrate using chemical bath deposition synthesis

Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanorods were successfully grown on polyethylene naphthalate substrates with a seed layer using a wet chemical bath deposition method at a low temperature. Using various precursor concentrations, the diameter, length, and density of the ZnO nanorods were controlled, and their optical and crystallinity properties were investigated. X-ray diffraction and field emission scanning electron microscopy were used to examine the structure and morphology of the ZnO nanorods. The obtained ZnO nanorods were hexagonal and grew vertically from the substrate in the (002) direction along the c-axis. The low compressive strain values confirmed the high-quality crystal structure of the synthesized ZnO nanorods. A 0.050 M precursor concentration resulted in nanorods with a uniform diameter along their entire length and diameters ranging from 10 nm to 40 nm. The photoluminescence results indicated that the ZnO nanorods grown using a 0.050 M precursor concentration exhibited the sharpest and most intense PL peaks in the UV range compared with the other samples. Therefore, the precursor concentration considerably influenced the growth of the ZnO nanorods. These ZnO nanorods can be greatly applied for the development of flexible, elastic electronic, and optoelectronic devices.     

Chemical solution-process method to synthesize ZnO nanorods with ultra-thin pinheads and ultra-thin nanobelts

ZnO nanorods with 30 nm-diameter ultra-thin pinheads and ultra-thin nanobelts were successfully synthesized using a thiourea solution to etch nanorods and nancombs, which were obtained by a conventional thermal evaporation method. The materials obtained were investigated by field emission scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence. The data shows that hydrogen ions play an important role in synthesizing ZnO nanorods with ultra-thin pinheads and ultra-thin nanobelts. Field emission plots indicated that the turn-on field was reduced from 2.10 V/μm to 1.55 V/μm after thiourea solution treatment at a current density of 0.1 μA/cm². Room-temperature photoluminescence spectra from ZnO nanostructures showed the PL spectrum peaks shifted towards short wavelengths with a large enhancement of UV bands compared with those of ZnO nanorods and nanocombs.

Fabrication of ZnO nanostructures of various dimensions using patterned substrates

ZnO nanostructures were grown on silicon, porous silicon, ZnO/Si and AlN/Si substrates by low-temperature aqueous synthesis method. The shape of nanostructures greatly depends on the underlying surface. Scattered ZnO nanorods were observed on silicon substrate, whereas aligned ZnO nanowires were obtained by introducing sputtered ZnO film as a seed layer. Furthermore, both the combination of nanorods and the bunch of nanowires were found on porous silicon substrates, whereas platelet-like morphology was observed on AlN/Si substrates. XRD patterns suggest the crystalline nature of aqueous-grown ZnO nanostructures and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy images confirm the single-crystalline growth of the ZnO nanorods along [0 0 1] direction. Room-temperature photoluminescence characterization clearly shows a band-edge luminescence along with a visible luminescence in the yellow spectral range.     

Aligned ZnO nanorod arrays fabricated on Si substrate by solution deposition

Aligned ZnO nanorod arrays were fabricated by chemical solution deposition based on Si substrate which was spin coated with ZnO colloid as nucleation seeds. Their microstructures were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. The results indicated that ZnO nanorods nucleated and grew vertically on Si substrates along the [0 0 1] direction with single-crystalline structure. The diameter of ZnO nanorods was greatly affected by the grain size of ZnO seeds. Room-temperature photoluminescence of nanorods has a strong emission band at about 384 nm.
