Problems solved by technology

The eutectic point of gold-zinc is above 400°C, so the growth temperature of zinc oxide nanowires is usually relatively high, which greatly limits the practical application of nanowire materials

Embodiment 1

[0044] A catalyst used for the growth of zinc oxide nanowires is an Au / Ga double-layer film formed by the mass ratio of metal Au and metal Ga, that is, Au: Ga is 1.5:1;

Abstract

The invention discloses a catalyst for a zinc oxide nanowire and application of the catalyst in growth of the zinc oxide nanowire. The catalyst for the zinc oxide nanowire is an Au / M multilayer film or an Au-M alloy film formed by metal Au and metal M with a mass ratio of 0.2 to 5:1, wherein M is a metal, the eutectic point of which and Zn is below 500 DEG C, preferably, M is a metal, the eutectic point of which and Zn is below 300 DEG C. Compared with gold as a catalyst under similar conditions, the catalyst is used for the growth of the zinc oxide nanowire, and the higher growth rate of the zinc oxide nanowire can be obviously obtained, the density of arrays of the prepared zinc oxide nanowire is larger, the diameter and the length of the nanowire are more uniform, and the grown zinc oxide nanowire has higher crystalline quality.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of preparation of nanometer materials, in particular to a catalyst used for the growth of zinc oxide nanowire vertical arrays and its application. Background technique [0002] One-dimensional oxidic nanowires have large aspect ratios, large exciton binding energies, and large band gaps at room temperature. Therefore, it has excellent photoelectric properties and has broad application prospects in nano-lasers, field emission electron sources, solar cells and gas-sensing devices. The controllable synthesis of ZnO nanowires is the basis for its device applications. [0003] Chemical vapor deposition is one of the most commonly used methods for preparing ZnO nanowires. Compared with other methods, the ZnO nanowires grown by this method have the best crystal quality and orientation. However, the chemical vapor deposition method usually requires a very high synthesis temperature (>500°C). At the same time, the prepar...
