摘要
ZnO nanowires, nanorods and microrods have been prepared by an organic-free hydrothermal process using ZnSO4 and NaOH/NH4OH solutions. The powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) patterns reveal that the ZnO nano/microrods are of hexagonal wurtzite structure. The Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrum of ZnO powder shows only one significant spectroscopic band at around 417 cm(-1) associated with the characteristic vibrational mode of Zn-O bonding. The thickness 75-300 nm for ZnO nanorods and 0.2-1.8 mu m for microrods are identified from SEM/TEM images. UV-visible absorption spectra of ZnO nano/microrods show the blue shift. The UV band and green emission observed in photoluminescence (PL) spectra are due to free exciton emission and singly ionized oxygen vacancy in ZnO. Finally, the mechanism for organic-free hydrothermal synthesis of the ZnO nano/microrods is discussed. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
