Problems solved by technology

This scheme uses ZnO nanowires prepared by hydrothermal method as the light-emitting active layer, and its more defects and impurities will seriously affect the light-emitting efficiency.
[0005] In general, the existing ZnO-based ultraviolet light-emitting devices generally have the following problems: 1) The quantum confinement Stark effect caused by lattice mismatch and polarization effects leads to low quantum efficiency in light-emitting diodes; Poor interface quality and deep-level luminescence caused by material defects lead to poor UV monochromaticity of LEDs; 3) The light extraction efficiency caused by the traditional planar structure is low; 4) The preparation process is complicated, the conditions are strictly controlled, and high temperature preparation is required The high cost of preparation caused by factors such as
The aforementioned problems limit the application of ZnO-based UV emitters
