| dc.description.abstract |
A zinc oxide (ZnO) whisker network array with sixfold symmetry was
fabricated on ZnO-buffered (0001) sapphire substrate by the vapour-phase
transport method using a mixture of zinc oxide and graphite powders as
source materials and patterned gold as catalyst. From the ZnO buffer layer,
hexagonal ZnO nanorods with identical in-plane structure grew epitaxially
along the [0001] orientation to form vertical stems. The branches grew
horizontally from six side-surfaces of the vertical stem along [01¯10] and
other equivalent directions. Most whiskers were confined along the six
preferential orientations and interconnected with each other to form a
regular network structure. The growth mechanism is discussed. |
