Nanocolumnar ZnO films were prepared by electrodeposition (ED) on a glass substrate covered with a conductive layer of thin oxide doped with fluorine (FTO). After deposition the samples were annealed in oxidizing or reducing atmosphere, at temperatures between 100 to 500 ∘C, in order to follow the evolution of optical properties and morphology. The optical properties of these films were studied by means of photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL) and the morphology by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Films annealed at 300 ∘C exhibit a higher ultraviolet emission peak, originating from exciton transitions. A green band related to deep-level emission centered at 500 nm, shows a drastic increase at 500 ∘C. These results are independent of the annealing atmosphere. An increase of coalescence is also observed after annealing at 500 ∘C. These results are explained taking into account the contribution of different point defects.
