Abstract

The highly-orientated zinc oxide nanorods were synthesized by chemical bath deposition methods at 95 °C. The aluminum doped zinc oxide films deposited by radio frequency magnetron sputtering were used as transparent and conductive substrates. After deposition, the zinc oxide nanorods were treated by annealing. The crystallinity of zinc oxide nanorods was enhanced by annealing. The obtained ZnO nanorods are expected for application in dye-sensitized solar cells.
