Growth and optical properties of quadrangular zinc oxide nanorods on copper-filled porous silicon

Flame-Spray-Made Undoped Zinc Oxide Films for Gas Sensing Applications

“…Different techniques, namely sol-gel [ 1 ], spray pyrolysis [ 2 ], hydrothermal method [ 3 , 4 ], electrospinning [ 5 ], thermal evaporation [ 6 , 7 ], etc. [ 8 – 13 ] are prevalent for the synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles and nanorods. In the present work, nanorods and nanoparticles have been prepared by flame spray pyrolysis (FSP), a promising technique for the synthesis of high purity nano-sized materials with controlled size and crystallinity in a single step.…”

Comparative study of ZnO nanostructures grown on silicon (100) and oxidized porous silicon substrates with and without Au catalyst by chemical vapor transport and condensation

“…Hsu et al reported an orientation enhancement for ZnO nanowires with controlled-size porous silicon substrates by vapor-liquid-solid process [14]. Yu et al studied synthesis, field emission and optical property of different morphology ZnO nanostructures on CuO-catalyzed porous silicon substrates [15][16][17].…”

“…A variety of methods have been used to grow ZnO nanostructures on such as hydrothermal method [8], sol-gel method [9,10], spray technique [11], magnetron sputtering [12] and vapor phase transport method [13][14][15][16][17]. Moreover, there are few reports on formation of ZnO nanostructures on porous silicon.…”

Growth of ZnO Nanostructures on Porous Silicon and Oxidized Porous Silicon Substrates

“…Hsu et al [10] reported an orientation enhancement for ZnO nanowires with controlled size porous silicon substrates by vapor-liquid-solid process. Yu et al [20][21][22] studied the synthesis, field emission and optical property of ZnO nanostructures with different morphologies on CuO-catalyzed porous silicon substrates. To our knowledge, there have been no reports on growth of ZnO on oxidized PS which can act as a substrate of photoconductors.…”
