摘要
Zinc peroxide thin films were electrodeposited from aqueous solution at room temperature using H2O2 as the oxidation agent. Nanocrystalline zinc oxide thin films were then obtained from thermal decomposition of zinc peroxide thin films. The grain sizes of ZnO through thermal decomposition of ZnO2 at 200 degrees C, 300 degrees C and 400 degrees C were estimated from the peak width of ZnO(110) obtained from X-ray diffraction and were 6.3 nm, 9.1 nm and 12.9 nm, respectively. The optical properties of zinc oxide thin films have been studied. The photoluminescence results indicate that ZnO thin films have low Stokes blue shift (about 110 meV) and low oxygen vacancies.
