Abstract

ZnO nanowires are readily fabricated with a novel and unique, high-pressure pulsed laser deposition process developed recently by us. It allows the flexible and reproducible control of morphology, diameter, lenght and composition. Furthermore, we report on the electrical characterization as well as stimulated emission from a zinc oxide (ZnO) microcrystals grown by carbothermal evaporation observed by spatially resolved photoluminescence (PL) and high excitation spectroscopy (HES).
