title = "Post-annealing effects on structural and optical properties of a-axis oriented ZnO nanorods",
abstract = "ZnO nanorods with a-axis orientation on Si (100) substrate were grown by hydrothermal method and then post-annealing process was carried out at various temperatures ranging from 500 to 900°C in vacuum. Atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and photoluminescence (PL) were carried out to investigate the structural and optical properties of the ZnO nanorods. XRD pattern of the ZnO nanorods exhibits three diffraction peaks a 31.84°, 34.48°, and 66.43°, corresponding to ZnO (100), (002), and (200), respectively. The texture coefficient (TC) ratio of a-axis to c-axis is increased as the annealing temperature is increased. The residual tensile stress of the ZnO nanorods is increased and the bond length is slightly decreased with increase in the annealing temperature. The near-band-edge emission (NBE) of the ZnO nanorods is blue- shifted by the annealing process.",
