ZNO TETRAPODS HAVE BEEN GROWN BY AN ENVIRONMENTAL MICROWAVE EVAPORATION APPROACH IN AIR ATMOSPHERE WITHOUT ANY USE OF ORGANIC SOLVENTS OR PRECURSORS. THE SYNTHESIZED POWDER WAS CHARACTERIZED USING X-RAY DIFFRACTOMETRY (XRD) AND FIELD EMISSION SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPY (FE-SEM). THE GROWN ZNO TETRAPODS EXHIBITED A NOTEWORTHY MICROSTRUCTURE AND PHASE FORMATION OF CRYSTALLINE AND PURE STRUCTURE. ZNO TETRAPODS WERE DEPOSITED ON PT ... Read more

In this paper, ZnO films were prepared by oxidizing the Zn film deposited by electron beam evaporation on glass substrates. The oxidation process was carried out at three-step of annealing process. At first step, the Zn films were annealed at temperature of 300 0C for one hour to form ZnO layers on the surface of the Zn films to prevent ... Read more
