摘要：Pencil-like ZnO nanostructure was synthesized by directly oxidizing granular Zn films, which was thermal deposited in a nitrogen atmosphere from Zn powder in a horizontal tube furnace. The formation of the pencil-like structure, including a hexagonal rod and a sharp tip with diameter about 60 nm, highly depend on the thickness of the initial zinc film and the temperature of the oxidizing process. ZnO nanorods were formed in a relatively low temperature, while thicker zinc film was apt to form a dense ZnO film with tubular structures. The different structured ZnO materials showed distinguishing optical properties which indicate the intrinsic defects forming in the different growth conditions. The pencil-like ZnO structures exhibit a relatively strong green emission attributed to the high concentrations of oxygen vacancies and its taper tip has great prospects in field-emission devices.
