Surface recombination in ZnO nanorods grown by chemical bath deposition

Abstract: Vertically well-aligned ZnO nanorods on Si substrates were prepared by a two-step chemical bath deposition ͑CBD͒ method. The optical properties of the grown ZnO nanorods were investigated by time resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy. It was found that the effective decay time of the near bandgap recombination in the CBD grown ZnO nanorods strongly depends on the diameter of the ZnO nanorods. Typically, the decay curves obtained from these ZnO nanorods show a combination of two exponential decays. The experi… Show more

“…23, in which theoretical calculated results show a well consistency with these assignments, especially for  S . The value of  S is 14 ps and 21 ps for the as-grown and 500 o C annealed ZNAs, respectively, which clearly indicates that the decay constant that arises from surface processes increases after annealing, i.e.…”

“…surface defects and intrinsic defects (also called as deep level defects) [23][24]. To further clearly distinguish the contribution from the surface defects and intrinsic defects, for the prolonged decay time after 500oC annealing, we also investigated the effect of annealing temperature on the optical properties of ZnO nanorods [24].…”

“…The desire for efficient light emitters has motivated considerable interest in exciton dynamics [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] as it provides information both on efficiency of radiative recombination, determined by oscillator strength of the corresponding optical transitions, and also on material quality reflected by contributions of nonradiative recombination in lifetimes of photogenerated carriers. The decay time of excitonic photoluminescence ͑PL͒ reaches several nanoseconds at RT in high quality ZnO single crystals 1,5 but is substantially shorter ͑ϳhundreds of picoseconds͒ in ZnO nanostructures.…”
