ZnO nanoparticles and ZnO encapsulated with polyethylene glycol (PEG) was synthesized using zinc acetate as a precursor at low temperature and characterized by different techniques. The influence of the types of solvent, synthesis parameters, and PEG encapsulation on the crystallization, the surface morphology, and the luminescent properties of ZnO nanoparticles prepared by the sol–gel process were investigated. The influence of different addition molar masses of the PEG during the synthesis on the ZnO emission peaks was systematically monitored. The crystallinity, the surface morphology, and the photoluminescence (PL) properties of ZnO depended highly on the synthesis process and PEG encapsulation. X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectra of ZnO nanoparticles show that all the peaks corresponding to the various planes of wurtzite ZnO indicate the formation of a single phase. The absorption edges of these ZnO nanoparticles are shifted by additions of the PEG polymer. The photoluminescence (PL) characterization of the ZnO nanostructures exhibited a broad emission in the visible range with maximum peak at 450 and/or 560 nm.  相似文献

ZnO nanostructures have been synthesized by heating a mixture of ZnO/graphite powders using the thermal evaporation and vapor transport on Si(1 0 0) substrates without any catalyst and at atmospheric argon pressure. The influence of the source temperature on the morphology and luminescence properties of ZnO nanostructures has been investigated. ZnO nanowires, nanoflowres and nanotetrapods have been formed upon the Si(1 0 0) substrates at different source temperatures ranging from 1100 to 1200 °C. Room temperature photoluminescence (PL) spectra showed increase green emission intensity as the source temperature was decreased and ZnO nanowires had the strongest intensity of UV emission compared with other nanostructures. In addition, the growth mechanism of the ZnO nanostructures is discussed based on the reaction conditions.  相似文献

Fluorescent ZnO nanoparticles have been prepared by mixing aqueous solutions of zinc nitrate and ammonium carbonate in the presence of a non-ionic surfactant, Tween-80. Increased concentrations of the surfactant were found to affect both the morphology and purity of the synthesized ZnO nanoparticles. XRD, SEM, FTIR, TGA and Confocal laser scanning microscopy were employed to characterize the as-prepared samples. ZnO nanoparticles ranging in particle size from 11 to 15 nm were formed at the reaction temperature of 70-80 °C. The results of FTIR and TGA analysis indicate the self assembly of Tween molecules on the surface of ZnO nanoparticles. A bright emission in the visible region from the as-prepared ZnO nanoparticles was recorded using confocal laser scanning microscopy. This property of the as-prepared nanoparticles may find potential application in bio-imaging.  相似文献

ZnO nanowires, nanorods and nanoribbons have been prepared by heating a mixture of ZnO/graphite powders using the thermal evaporation and vapor transport on Si(1 0 0) substrates without any catalyst. The nanostructures are grown as a function of substrate temperature ranging from 900 to 1300 K. These nanostructures are of the size 100–300 nm in diameter or width and several tens of micrometers in length. We studied the influence of the substrate temperature on the luminescent properties of these nanostructures. We observed a strong relationship between the substrate temperature and the green emission band in ZnO, i.e., the photoluminescence study revealed that the green emission peak of the ZnO nanostructures is suppressed relative to the band edge emission when the substrate temperature is decreased from 1300 to 900 K.  相似文献

We have developed a simple N-cetyl-N,N,N-trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB)-assisted hydrothermal route for the production of ZnO one-dimensional (1D) nanostructures on zinc foil at reaction temperature of 160 °C. With the increase of CTAB concentration, the one-dimensional structures change from microrod to a mixture of nano- and microrod and finally to nanorods. X-ray diffraction studies confirmed the proper phase formation of the grown nanostructures. The room temperature photoluminescence spectra showed that ZnO nanostructures prepared with increased CTAB concentration exhibited enhanced band edge UV emission and also blue shift of the emission peak. All the samples show no defect related green emission. Field emission property of the 1D structures has been investigated in detail. By tuning the CTAB concentration, the field emission property was optimized. The nanorods synthesized with high CTAB showed turn-on and threshold fields of 3.2 and 5 V/μm, respectively, which are comparable to the values for vapour phase synthesized high field emitting ZnO nanostructures.  相似文献

Material property dependence on the OH/Zn2+ molar ratio of the precursor was investigated by varying the amount of NaOH during synthesis of ZnO. It was necessary to control the water content and temperature of the mixture to ensure the reproducibility. It was observed that the structural properties, particle size, photoluminescence intensity and wavelength of maximum intensity were influenced by the molar ratio of the precursor. The XRD spectra for ZnO nanoparticles show the entire peaks corresponding to the various planes of wurtzite ZnO, indicating a single phase. UV measurements show the absorption that comes from the ZnO nanoparticles in visible region. The absorption edge of these ZnO nanoparticles are shifted to higher energies and the determined band gap energies are blue shifted as the OH/Zn2 molar ration increases, due to the quantum confinement effects. The photoluminescence characterization of the ZnO nanostructures exhibited a broad emission band centred at green (600 nm) region for all molar ratios except for OH/Zn2+ = 1.7 where a second blue emission around 468 nm was also observed. The photoluminescence properties of ZnO nanoparticles were largely determined by the size and surface properties of the nanoparticles.  相似文献

ZnO nanoparticles doped with Cu were synthesized by solid state reaction using different precursor routes and varying growth environment. Average crystallite size varied from 40 to 100 nm depending upon synthesis temperature, lower temperature favouring smaller particle size. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images showed that particles synthesized at 250 °C were in the shape of nanorods but those synthesized at 900 °C had spherical shape. Luminescence emission showed marked dependence on the growth conditions varying from ultraviolet (UV) emission to green emission. For making the luminescent nanoparticles bio-compatible, a bioinorganic interface on ZnO:Cu nanoparticles was created by coating them with inert silica. Surface modification of ZnO:Cu was also done with lipophilic polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA). ZnO:Cu nanoparticles showed hexagonal wurtzite structure and the coating of silica was confirmed with the presence of two extra peaks due to silica in the XRD spectra. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and FTIR spectroscopy indicated that PMMA molecules were adsorbed on the surface of ZnO:Cu nanoparticles. SEM images revealed that PMMA adsorption improved the dispersibilty of ZnO:Cu nanoparticles.  相似文献

Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles were synthesized using pulsed laser ablation of a Zn metal plate in deionized water without using surfactant. The beam of a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser of 1064-nm and 532-nm wavelengths at 6-ns pulse width and different fluences is employed to irradiate the solid target in water. Transmission electron microscopy images revealed that the size of the ZnO nanoparticles formed by the 532-nm wavelength laser beam is smaller than that of the nanoparticles generated by the 1064-nm wavelength laser beam. The room-temperature photoluminescence spectra of the ZnO nanoparticles show intense violet emission along with emission in blue and green bands. The excellent ultraviolet emission indicates that the ZnO nanostructures have a low defect concentration.  相似文献

In the present article, electrochemical synthesis of ZnO nanostructures in presence of ultrasonic irradiation is investigated. The ultrasonic bath use for synthesis is calibrated using hydrophone method so that its frequency and acoustic power were obtained. From the results of the experimentation the role of ultrasonic irradiation in synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles is discussed. Diameter of the ZnO nanoparticles produced in the electrolyte was compared and investigated in absence and presence of the ultrasonic irradiation utilizing UV–visible photo-spectrometer. Then electrodeposited ZnO layer on the ITO glass as cathode’s surface in absence and presence of the ultrasonic irradiation were studied by UV–visible photo-spectrometer and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and the results were compared. FE-SEM micrographs show, higher growth of nanosheets on the cathode electrode in presence of ultrasonic irradiation. Experiment shows synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles in presence of the ultrasonic irradiation happen 10 times faster.  相似文献

Gold colloid:ZnO nanostructures were prepared from Zn powder by using thermal oxidation technique on alumina substrates, then it was impregnated by gold colloid for comparative study. The gold colloid is the solution prepared by chemical reduction technique; it appeared red color for gold nanoparticle solution and yellow color for gold solution. The heating temperature and sintering time of thermal oxidation were 700 °C and 24 h, respectively under oxygen atmosphere. The structural characteristics of gold colloid:ZnO nanostructures and pure ZnO nanostructures were studied using filed emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM). From FE-SEM images, the diameter and length of gold colloid:ZnO nanostructures and ZnO nanostructures were in the ranges of 100-500 nm and 2.0-7.0 μm, respectively. The ethanol sensing characteristics of gold colloid:ZnO nanostructures and ZnO nanostructures were observed from the resistance alteration under ethanol vapor atmosphere at concentrations of 50, 100, 200, 500, and 1000 ppm with the operating temperature of 260-360 °C. It was found that the sensitivity of sensor depends on the operating temperature and ethanol vapor concentrations. The sensitivity of gold colloid:ZnO nanostructures were improved with comparative pure ZnO nanostructures, while the optimum operating temperature was 300 °C. The mechanism analysis of sensor revealed that the oxygen species on the surface was O2−.  相似文献

We report on the enhanced ultraviolet (UV) photoconductivity of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanostructures in vacuum. Nanoparticles and nanorods of ZnO were fabricated using a simple cost-effective solid state grinding method. Morphology of the nanostructures was studied using transmission electron microscopy, while the optical properties were investigated using UV–visible absorption and photoluminescence spectroscopy. The emission spectra of the nanostructures revealed the existence of various native defect states of ZnO and also indicated the presence of surface adsorbed water molecules. In the photoconductivity measurements, although the ZnO nanoparticles exhibited lower photoconductivity in comparison to the nanorods, a similar trend of photoresponse was observed for both the cases. An initial decrease in the photoconductivity followed by a large enhancement was observed in vacuum compared to that in ambient condition. Such unusually increased photoconductivity has been correlated to the desorption of physisorbed water molecules from nanostructure surfaces under vacuum. This desorption is responsible for the rise in dark current and an initial decrease in photoconductivity. Continual UV irradiation in vacuum leads to the desorption of chemisorbed water molecules from the defect sites of the nanostructures, resulting in the occurrence of high photoconductivity.  相似文献

ZnO thin films with diverse nanostructures, including nanodot, nanowire and nanoflower, have been fabricated on zinc foils by a simple and rapid electrochemical anodization method. The ZnO thin films reveal very strong visible emission that is ascribed to the transition between VOZni and valence band. Under the dc or ac electric field, the electroinduced surface wettability conversion from the superhydrophobic to hydrophilic state was observed and the generation of surface defective sites on ZnO films under electric field was used to explain the transition mechanism. This work provides a simple and rapid method for synthesizing different ZnO nanostructures in large scale, and electric field can be used to modulate the wettability of ZnO nanostructures.  相似文献

Vertical aligned ZnO nanowires were grown by MOCVD technique on silicon substrate using ZnO and AlN thin films as seed layers. The shape of nanostructures was greatly influenced by the under laying surface. Vertical nanopencils were observed on ZnO/Si, whereas the nanowires on both sapphire and AlN/Si substrate have the similar aspect ratio. XRD patterns suggest that the nanostructures have good crystallinity. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) confirmed the single crystalline growth of the ZnO nanowires along [0 0 1] direction. Room-temperature photoluminescence (PL) spectra of ZnO nanowires on AlN/Si clearly show a band-edge luminescence accompanied with a visible emission. More interestingly, no visible emission for the nanopencils on ZnO/Si substrates, were observed.  相似文献

The ZnO nanowires have been synthesized using vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) process on Au catalyst thin film deposited on different substrates including Si(1 0 0), epi-Si(1 0 0), quartz and alumina. The influence of surface roughness of different substrates and two different environments (Ar + H2 and N2) on formation of ZnO nanostructures was investigated. According to AFM observations, the degree of surface roughness of the different substrates is an important factor to form Au islands for growing ZnO nanostructures (nanowires and nanobelts) with different diameters and lengths. Si substrate (without epi-taxy layer) was found that is the best substrate among Si (with epi-taxy layer), alumina and quartz, for the growth of ZnO nanowires with the uniformly small diameter. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) reveals that different nanostructures including nanobelts, nanowires and microplates have been synthesized depending on types of substrates and gas flow. Observation by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) reveals that the nanostructures are grown by VLS mechanism. The field emission properties of ZnO nanowires grown on the Si(1 0 0) substrate, in various vacuum gaps, were characterized in a UHV chamber at room temperature. Field emission (FE) characterization shows that the turn-on field and the field enhancement factor (β) decrease and increases, respectively, when the vacuum gap (d) increase from 100 to 300 μm. The turn-on emission field and the enhancement factor of ZnO nanowires are found 10 V/μm and 1183 at the vacuum gap of 300 μm.  相似文献

Cauliflower-like ZnO nanostructures with average crystallite size of about 55 nm which have surface one dimensional (1D) nanoarrays with 10 nm diameter were successfully fabricated through a simple sonochemical route. X-ray diffractometry (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and room temperature photoluminescence (PL) characterizations were performed to investigate the morphological and structural properties of the obtained nanostructures. It has been shown that the synthesized cauliflower-like ZnO nanostructures irradiated UV luminescence and a green peak in visible band. Ultrasonic post-treatment of the particles for about 2 h increased the density of surface defects resulted in an increase in the green emission intensity.  相似文献

Novel ZnO tetrapod and multipod nanostructures were successfully synthesized in bulk quantity through thermal evaporation method. The morphologies and structures of the ZnO nanostructures were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. The results revealed that the ZnO nanostructures consisted of tetrapods and multipods with tower-like legs. The ZnO nanostructures were of high purity and were well crystallized with wurtzite structure. The preferred growth direction of legs was found to be the [0 0 0 1] direction. Possible growth mechanisms were proposed for the formation of the ZnO nanostructures. Room temperature photoluminescence (PL) spectra showed that the as-synthesized ZnO nanostructures had a strong green emission centered at 495 nm and a weak ultraviolet emission at 383 nm. Raman spectroscopy was also adopted to explore the structural quality of the ZnO nanostructures.  相似文献

A controllable heterostructure consisting of ZnO nanorod arrays with attached Ag nanoparticles at only one end has been synthesized via a facile and convenient galvanic reduction method. Scanning electron microscopic images of these nanostructures showed good selectivity of Ag deposition on the tip of ZnO nanorod arrays. The formation of these regular Ag ZnO heterogeneous nanorod arrays can be explained by a localization of the electrons at the ends of the ZnO nanorods after the electron transfer step. By tuning the reaction time and the concentration of silver nitrate, the density of Ag nanoparticles on the tip of ZnO nanorods can be well controlled. Owing to the introduction of Ag nanoparticles with different densities, the resulting Ag ZnO heterogeneous nanorod arrays have been proved to be a versatile substrate for surface‐enhanced Raman scattering not only for common organic molecules but also for label‐free protein detection.

The mixture of nanostructures derived from the surface interactions and reactivity of ZnO nanoparticles with the room-temperature ionic liquid (IL1) 1-hexyl, 3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate has been studied. Results are discussed on the basis of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observations, energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analysis, X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) determinations. Size and morphology changes in ZnO nanoparticles by surface modification with IL1 are observed. ZnF2 crystalline needles due to reaction with the hexafluorophosphate anion are also formed.  相似文献

Sword-like (diameter ranging from 40 nm to 300 nm) and needle-like zinc oxide (ZnO) nanostructures (average tip diameter ∼40 nm) were synthesized on annealed silver template over silicon substrate and directly on silicon wafer, respectively via thermal evaporation of metallic zinc followed by a thermal annealing in air. The surface morphology, microstructure, chemical analysis and optical properties of the grown samples were investigated by field emission scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray analysis, room temperature photoluminescence and Raman spectroscopy. The sword-like ZnO nanostructures grown on annealed silver template are of high optical quality compared to needle-like ZnO nanorods for UV emission and show enhanced Raman scattering.  相似文献
