摘要
ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized using sol-gel method. The structural and optical properties were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high resolution TEM (HRTEM), Raman spectroscopy, and photoluminescence (PL). XRD analysis demonstrates that the nanoparticles have the hexagonal wurtzite structure and the particle size is increased with annealing temperature. The average size of the nanoparticles was determined by SEM as well as XRD data and found to be similar to 50 nm after annealing at 800 degrees C. A sharp, strong and dominant UV emission with a suppressed green emission has been observed at 300 and 10 K, indicating the good optical properties of ZnO nanoparticles. The 10 K UV band is dominated by a neutral-donor bound exciton, and the surface-related SX emission at 3.31 eV is evidenced. (C) 2012 The Japan Society of Applied Physics
