“…The ability to easily manipulate the structure and morphology of ZnO has led to particular interest in its nanostructures. A wide variety of nanoscale morphologies can be grown such as wires, rods, tetrapods, belts, rings, and combs [7][8][9][10][11]. In particular, ZnO nanowires and nanorods grown by vapor deposition techniques and solution-based methods have attracted interest because of their possible applications in optoelectronic devices such as light-emitting diodes, transparent field-effect transistors, UV light detectors, and solar cells.…”
