Abstract

Single-crystalline ZnO nanowires on a sapphire substrate have been synthesized by a nanoparticle-assisted pulsed-laser deposition (NAPLD) using a pure and Sb2O3 doped ZnO target. Low density and vertically well-aligned ZnO nanowires were grown on hexagonal cone-shape ZnO cores by introduction of a ZnO buffer layer. More than 90% of the ZnO cores of the Sb-induced ZnO nanowires are formed in the same size of 400 nm. The ZnO nanowires consist of single-crystalline wurtzite ZnO crystal and grow along [0001] direction. The room-temperature photoluminescence spectrum exhibited a strong ultraviolet emission at around 380 nm and a relatively low broad band emission in the visible region, indicating a low concentration of structural defect in the nanowires. Sb can be used as one of the effective additives to control the morphology and alignment of ZnO nanowires synthesized by NAPLD.
