A simple route to vertical array of quasi-1d zno nanofilms on fto surfaces: 1d-crystal growth of nanoseeds under ammonia-assisted hydrolysis process

A simple method for the synthesis of ZnO nanofilms composed of vertical array of quasi-1D ZnO nanostructures (quasi-NRs) on the surface was demonstrated via a 1D crystal growth of the attached nanoseeds under a rapid hydrolysis process of zinc salts in the presence of ammonia at room temperature.
