The structures associated with different growth temperatures (700, 800, and 850°C) were monitored by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the result shows that the length of the nanorods increase progressively with the growth temperature increasing. X-ray diffraction (XRD) shows that the as-obtained samples can be indexed to high crystallinity with wurtzite structure. The growth of the nanostructures mainly depends on the formation of sphere-like Mg-doped Zn droplets before adding oxygen. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra that show a 39 meV blue shift indicates that the band gap becomes large, because Mg substitutes Zn in the lattice.展开更多

The epilayers grown on (111) GaAs, (112¯0) Al2O3 and (100) Si have proven to be single crystalline feature. The optical and electrical characteristics of ZnS epilayers are measured by photoluminescence, cathodeluminescence, and the Van der Pauw method. The results indicate that there are not a large number of deep centers that could be detected both at 77K and at room temperature. A broad CL peak around 2.897eV and 2.672eV was observed only under very strong excitation. Their origin has not been examined. All epilayers present high resistivities up to 1013Ω·cm.展开更多
