Carbon-assisted nucleation and vertical growth of high-quality ZnO nanowire arrays
We developed a carbon-assisted physical-vapor-deposition method for the growth of highly aligned ZnO nanowire arrays on any flat substrates in large area. Amorphous carbon (a-C) films acted as the preferential nucleation sites to facilitate the growth of high-quality ZnO nanowire array patterns. The...
