ABSTRACTScanning electronic microscopy (SEM), X ray diffraction (XRD) and photoluminescence (PL) have been applied to the study of structural and optical properties of ZnO nanocrystals prepared by the ultrasonic spray pyrolysis (USP) at different temperatures. The variation of temperatures and times at the growth of ZnO films permits modifying the ZnO phase from the amorphous to crystalline, to change the size of ZnO nanocrystals (NCs), as well as to vary their photoluminescence spectra. The study has revealed three types of PL bands in ZnO NCs: defect related emission, the near-band-edge (NBE) PL, related to the LO phonon replica of free exciton (FE) recombination, and its second-order diffraction peaks. The PL bands, related to the LO phonon replica of FE, and its second-order diffraction in the room temperature Pl spectrum testify on the high quality of ZnO films prepared by the USP technology.

In this paper, ZnO nanofilms are prepared on quartz substrate by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis (USP) technology. The effects of substrate temperature and deposition time on the micro-structural, morphological and optical properties of ZnO thin films are investigated in detail. Measurements indicate that the growth process of the film is as follows: Micro grains accumulation [Formula: see text] grains’ expansion [Formula: see text] grow into certain nanostructures under different temperature. Nanostructures of the film are as follows: Irregular broken hexagonal-like structure ([Formula: see text]C); coexisting of broken hexagonal- and sheet-like structure (450–500[Formula: see text]C); regular closed packed sheets-like structure ([Formula: see text]C). In addition, all results show that RMS roughness of the films is less than 20 nm. Moreover, the visible transmittance of these samples is higher than 90%. Which display that ZnO films with low roughness and excellent optical properties can be also fabricated by low-cost USP method.
