Figure 3From: Intensify the application of ZnO-based nanodevices in humid environment: O2/H2 plasma suppressed the spontaneous reaction of amorphous ZnO nanowiresThe spontaneous growth of a-ZnO NBs. (a) The a-ZnO NBs became new growth areas; amorphous nanostructures are around the a-ZnO NBs. (b) There are also amorphous layers on the c-ZnO NW near the roots of a-ZnO NBs. (c) ZnO NWs exhibit a single crystalline feature with the growth along [001] direction. (d) There are surface caves can be found on the c-ZnO NW due to the humidity influence; the dissolution direction is along [010].Back to article page
