説明

<jats:p>A nonlithographic second-order self-assembly process for synthesizing uniform and ordered arrays of nanorods and nanodots is presented and applied to the fabrication of ZnO nanorod arrays. Nucleation sites were defined by patterning Au nanodot catalysts with a self-organized array of nanopores formed in anodized aluminum oxide (AAO). The self-assembled vertically aligned ZnO nanorods grown on GaN exhibit hexagonal facets, and have a uniform diameter of 60 nm and a mean length of 400 nm. The growth technique is simple, robust, and offers a direct control over array and single nanorod configurations. The growth temperature is significantly lower than normal, and yet, the resultant defect level is much lower than normal.</jats:p>
