Title: Synthesis and characterization of ZnO nanostructured film for optoelectronic applications

Abstract

ZnO nanostructured film is synthesized by solution combustion technique. X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies show that preferred orientation is along (101) confirming the hexagonal wurtzite phase and no secondary phase is observed. The rietveld refinement of the XRD data was used to calculate different lattice parameters. I-V characterization of ZnO film shows non linear behavior. These ZnO films are photosensitive, may be due to defect states. This property of these films can be utilized in optoelectronic applications.
