摘要
Zinc oxide (ZnO) quantum dots (QDs) have been fabricated. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy shows that the ZnO QDs have a narrow size distribution, and are highly crystallized with wurtzite structure. Light-emitting diodes have been constructed by employing the QDs as active layers. Intense near-band-edge emissions have been observed from the diodes, which show a noticeable blue-shift compared with the emission of a similar diode employing ZnO film as an active layer, which is demonstrated to come from the quantum size effect of the QDs due to their small size.
