The obtained ZnO nanostructure was characterized by XRD and SEM. The results of characterization indicate that the nanorods are high-quality single crystals growing along (001) direction with a high consistent orientation perpendicular to the substrate. SEM images show that the nanorods have a very narrow size distribution of 20—50 nm with the average diameter about 40 nm. The room temperature photoluminescence of the as-prepared ZnO films exhibits a strong UV emission at about 390 nm and a weak emission at about 460 nm. The ease of fabricating high-quality ZnO nanorod arrays in large scales will greatly promote the fundamental research and practical applications of the ordered one-dimention ZnO structure in various fields of nanoscale science and technology.展开更多

The wettability of the films were studied. The films treated with octadecanethiol(ODT) possess super hydrophobic properties. The static contact angle for water of the ODT modified films is 155.3°±2.3°, and the advancing and receding angles are 156.5°±1.9° and 150.3°±2.8°, respectively. It is believed that the super hydrophobic property of the ZnO nanorod array films is mainly caused by the nanostructures of the films and the modification of ODT adsorption layer on ZnO surfaces.展开更多
