Pure and aluminum-doped zinc oxide thin films were grown by spin coating at room temperature. As a starting material, zinc acetate was used. The dopant source was aluminum nitrate; the dopant molar ratio was varied between 1 and 10%. Structural analysis reveals that all films consist of single hexagonal wurtzite phase ZnO, and a preferential orientation along c-axis. They have a homogeneous surface. The measurements show that the films are nanostructured. The transmittance is greater than 75% in the visible region. The band gap energy decreases with the addition of dopant (Al) in prepared thin films and the resistivity decreases significantly.

“…A lot of work has been done in the area of transition metal doping of ZnO single crystals and thin films [88][89][90][91][92]. However, a few reports on the synthesis and characterization of ZnO nanostructures doped with different impurities like Al, Sn, Ga, In, Sb, Cu, etc are available in the literature [93][94][95][96][97][98]. Li et al [99] has synthesized ZnO nanorods doped with manganese (Mn), chromium (Cr) and cobalt (Co) in a hydrothermal synthesis using zinc nitrate, transition metal nitrate and hexamethylenetetramine.…”

One-dimensional nanostructures exhibit interesting electronic and optical properties due to their low dimensionality leading to quantum confinement effects. ZnO has received lot of attention as a nanostructured material because of unique properties rendering it suitable for various applications. Amongst the different methods of synthesis of ZnO nanostructures, the hydrothermal method is attractive for its simplicity and environment friendly conditions. This review summarizes the conditions leading to the growth of different ZnO nanostructures using hydrothermal technique. Doping of ZnO nanostructures through hydrothermal method are also highlighted.

“…Among them, ZnO is one of candidate materials which has been attracting attention because of its wide band gap energy of about 3.37 eV. Therefore, ZnO is an important material for room temperature UV lasers and short-wavelength optoelectronic device 1,2 . Furthermore, ZnO with its good electrical and optical properties can be used in many applications such as photoconductors, integrated sensors and transparent conducting oxide electrodes 3,4 .…”

Nanocrystalline ZnO powders have been synthesized by using zinc acetate dihydrate and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as starting materials. The calcined powders in air at 600 o C for 1 hour have been characterized by XRD, indicating the wurtzite or hexagonal structure with crystallite size of about 45 nm. The TEM image gives the grain size of about 100 nm in diameter at 3x10 -4 M PVP. The morphology of ZnO powders has been changed from platelet-like to rod shape with increase in PVP concentrations. The calcined ZnO powders have exhibited the direct optical band gap of about 3.222-3.237 eV and its photoluminescence has performed the UV emission peak at about 390 nm with small blue shift due to smaller grain size at higher PVP concentrations.
