Structure and Morphology of Zinc Oxide Nanorods

摘要

The properties of nanorods made of high-energy-gap Zn (x) Mg1 - x O semiconductors are experimentally investigated using the new system of 3D manipulation of individual nanospecimens. The technology used to prepare Zn (x) Mg1 - x O nanorods via gas-phase deposition on a substrate, the process whereby individual nanorods are selected by means of nanocomposite tweezers with the shape-memory effect in the vacuum chamber of a two-beam scanning microscope, and the results obtained when their structure and morphology are experimentally studied using transmission electron spectroscopy are described. The prospects that nanophotonic, nanosensorial, and nanoelectronic devices can be fabricated from Zn (x) Mg1 - x O nanorods via the new nanomanipulation technique are discussed.
