Effect of growth time on ZnO thin films prepared by low temperature chemical bath deposition on PS substrate

ZnO thin films were successfully synthesized on a porous silicon (PS) substrate by chemical bathdeposition method. X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM),and photoluminescence (PL) analyses were carried out to investigate the effect of growth duration(3, 4, 5, and 6 h) on the optical and structural properties of the aligned ZnO nanorods.

Effects of annealing on properties of ZnO thin films prepared by electrochemical deposition in chloride medium

The development of cost-effective and low-temperature synthesis techniques for the growth of highquality zinc oxide thin films is paramount for fabrication of ZnO-based optoelectronic devices, especially ultraviolet (UV)-light-emitting diodes, lasers and detectors. We demonstrate that the properties, especially UV emission, observed at room temperature, of electrodeposited ZnO thin films from c...
