“…8 Therefore, several new routes have been developed to synthesize ZnO-NPs, such as a wet polymerization method, sol-gel, sol-gel combustion, precipitation, hydrothermal, solvothermal, chemical vapor deposition (CVD), microwave assisted, a sonochemical method, and thermal oxidation. [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] Some of these methods have limitations. For example, it is not easy to control the growth of the ZnO nanostructures in the microwave, sol-gel, and sol-gel combustion methods because of the speed of the reactions.…”

Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) were synthesized via a solvothermal method in triethanolamine (TEA) media. TEA was utilized as a polymer agent to terminate the growth of ZnO-NPs. The ZnO-NPs were characterized by a number of techniques, including X-ray diffraction analysis, transition electron microscopy, and field emission electron microscopy. The ZnO-NPs prepared by the solvothermal process at 150°C for 18 hours exhibited a hexagonal (wurtzite) structure, with a crystalline size of 33 ± 2 nm, and particle size of 48 ± 7 nm. The results confirm that TEA is a suitable polymer agent to prepare homogenous ZnO-NPs.

“…Thus, "bottom-up" growth of axial nanowire heterostructures has been developed using a vapor-liquidsolid (VLS) mechanism [2]. Nowadays, oxide heterostructures are also extensively fabricated for optoelectronic device applications, and oxide axial nanowire heterostructures have been fabricated, such as ZnO/ZnInO [3] and ZnS/Zn 2 SnO 4 [4].…”

The CuO/Cu2O nanowire axial heterostructures were fabricated by a thermal oxidation technique in air. These nanowire structures resulted from CuO nanowire growth followed by Cu2O formation. These nanowires were divided into two regions. One is the top half part of the nanowire with CuO domains, and the other part is the bottom half of the wires with Cu2O domains. The structural property of the CuO/Cu2O nanowire axial heterostructures was clarified in detail. Both the CuO and the Cu2O have domain boundaries parallel to the growth direction. The specific relationship of the crystalline orientation between the CuO and Cu2O shows that CuO [110] or [110] is nearly parallel to Cu2O [110] mostly along the growth directions. The growth condition dependence of the morphological structure was also examined. A simple axial nanowire heterostructure fabrication technique using the compositional modification was developed.
