Synthesis of ZnO nanostructures in organic solvents and their photoluminescence properties

“…Among the functional semiconductors, zinc oxide (ZnO) is one of the most important materials due to its wide direct band gap (3.37 eV) and large exciton binding energy (60 meV) [6,7]. ZnO nanostructures have attracted more attentions for their applications in various nanodevices including nanogenerators, light-emitting diodes, polarization sensitive photodetectors, nanolasers, chemical sensors and solar cells [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18]. Various synthesis methods such as thermal evaporation, chemical vapor deposition, metal-organic chemical vapor deposition, molecular beam epitaxy, template-assisted methods, electrochemical deposition and hydrothermal/solvothermal methods have been successfully applied in syntheses of ZnO nanostructures [19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32].…”
