High-quality ZnO nanorod arrays are formed using the ZnO nanoflakes on the Al substrate as seed layer. A reversible wettability transition can be easily achieved via alternation of UV irradiation and dark storage. The physical adsorption of the water molecules on the surface of ZnO nanorod arrays is considered to be responsible for this transition, which is confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.

One-dimensional ZnO semiconductor nanomaterials have been attracting increasing attention due to their outstanding properties, which are different from bulk materials. ZnO has a direct band gap of 3.37 eV and large exciton binding energy hence its nanowires and nanorods have been regarded as one of the most promising materials for nanoscale electronic and optoelectronic devices such as ultraviolet laser diodes, optical detectors and gas sensor. ZnO nanowires and nanorods have been successfully synthesized by various techniques such as evaporation, sputtering and pyrolysis. In this paper we report the preparation of nanorod arrays of ZnO on ITO glass substrates which were pre-coated with ZnO nanoparticles by using low temperature chemical solution method and the result was compared with microwave hydrolysis process. The morphology and structure of ZnO nanorod arrays were investigated using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The ZnO nanorod arrays with a diameter of 40-70 nm were successfully synthesized. In microwave hydrolysis method, the diameter, density and surface roughness was found to depend on the microwave power. The microwave method is far superior in producing ZnO nanostructure growth.

Highly oriented and well-aligned ZnO nanorod arrays were synthesized by low-temperature solution phase method on copper substrate under different conditions. Results illustrated that dense ZnO nanorods were vertically and uniformly distributed on the substrate. The effects of precursor concentration, growth temperature and time on the morphologies of nanorod arrays were investigated systematically. It is demonstrated that the controllable growth of well-aligned ZnO nanorods can be realized by readily adjusting the preparation parameters. The high quality ZnO nanorod arrays could be achieved via the chemical approach at low temperature.
