Binding studies of molecular linkers to ZnO and MgZnO nanotip films
Article Abstract:
The first functionalization of ZnO nanotip films (ZnO-N) with a series mono- or bifunctional linkers is described and a comparison is made between the binding properties of ZnO-N with other ZnO materials. The binding experiments indicate that the carboxylic acid group (COOH) is suitable anchoring group for binding to the ZnO-N but that the number and position of the COOH groups, the acidity of the anchoring group, and solution pH also play a role in the binding.

Lasing mechanism of ZnO nanowires/nanobelts at room temperature
Article Abstract:
The three types of lasing mechanism in ZnO nanowire, pure, lightly doped and highly doped are reported. The different lasing mechanisms are determined by the interplay of the exciton binding energy, doping, exciton-phonon coupling and F-P effect and the doping effect is found to change the exciton-phonon coupling significantly, thereby tuning the binding energy of excitons, bound exciton formation and exciton dissociation processes.

Controllable assembly of aligned ZnO nanowires/belts arrays
Article Abstract:
A simple method is described to assemble ZnO nanowires/belts into highly ordered arrays by a controllable vaporizing method, in which ZnCu2 alloy is used as the Zn reacting with water vapor to generate ZnO nanocrystals. The highly ordered nature of the ZnO arrays is related both with the polarities of the H2O molecule and the ZnO (0001) surface and light enhancement property show their promising applications as light source arrays.
