Abstract
Novel porous ZnO nanobelts were successfully synthesized by heating layered basic zinc acetate (LBZA) nanobelts in the air. The precursor of LBZA nanobelts consisted of a lamellar structure with two interlayer distances of 1.325 and 0.99 nm were prepared using a low-temperature, solution-based method. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and infrared spectroscopy are used to characterize the as-products. PL measurements show that the porous ZnO nanobelts have strong ultraviolet emission properties at 380 nm, while no defect-related visible emission is detected. The good performance for photoluminescence emission makes the porous ZnO nanobelts promising candidates for photonic and electronic device applications.
