One-Dimensional and Two-Dimensional ZnO Nanostructured Materials on a Plastic Substrate and Their Field Emission Properties

Abstract: One-dimensional ZnO nanopillars of diameter 80-120 nm and two-dimensional nanowalls of thickness 100-300 nm are electrochemically grown at 70°C on a flexible polyester substrate. The low turn-on electric fields measured at a current density of 1 µA/cm 2 for nanopillars (1.2 V/µm) and nanowalls (2.2 V/µm) illustrate their superior field emission properties to most of the reported ZnO nanostructures. The present method of direct electrodeposition of ZnO on plastic without the need of template or catalyst offers … Show more

“…Ions, such as Cl − or CH 3 COO − [41], are adsorbed (capping) preferentially on the positive polar face of the (0001) plane. This will limit the crystal growth along the c-axis and redirect the growth in the ( 101 ¯ 0 ) plane, and as a result, a platelet-like ZnO is produced [41,42,44]. It is worth noting that the substrate type has a significant effect on the morphology of the prepared ZnO structures.…”

“…It has been extensively exploited in a broad range of applications such as; ultraviolet lasers [3,4] , light-emitting diodes [5 -7] , fi eld emission devices [8,9] , chemical and biological sensors [10,11] , solar cells [12,13] , piezoelectric nanogenerators [14 -16] . Additionally, ZnO being a biocompatible and bio-safe material makes it potentially useful for biomedical applications [17 -21] .…”

“…ZnO arrays were electrodeposited on transparent indium tin oxide (ITO) or fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO) covered glass (Pilkington) cathodes in aqueous electrolytes contained ZnSO 4 Phase composition and structure of the deposited films were determined by XRD-method using an X-ray diffractometer DRON-4M with CoK α radiation according to θ-2θ-scheme. Preferable orientations of the films were researched by analytical treatment of the X-ray diffractions by means of obtaining of texture factor P i [11]:…”
