3D micro-structured arrays of ZnΟ nanorods

Abstract The fabrication of nanostructures with controlled assembly and architecture is very important for the development of novel nanomaterial-based devices. We demonstrate that laser techniques coupled with low-temperature hydrothermal growth enable complex three-dimensional ZnO nanorod patternin...
