Abstract
Photoluminescence investigations of ZnO nanorods realised by an advanced two-step aqueous chemical growth process have been carried out revealing well-resolved near-band-edge emission accompanied by phonon replicas. The optical properties of nanorods with different lengths and diameters are quite similar indicating a good control of the growth process without influencing the optical properties even on plastic substrate. The near-band-edge emission has a very broad line-width of ∼∼10 meV. Annealing in Ar atmosphere reduces the deep-level emission with a corresponding increase of the near-band-edge emission.
