Abstract
We report on the optical properties of ZnO nanodots and how they are influenced by the height of the dot configuration. The nanodots were grown on SiO2/Si substrates by remote-plasma enhanced metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (RPE-MOCVD). The dot configuration was regulated by controlling the growth time. The photoluminescence (PL) spectra of nanodots having average dot height of 2.5, 3.5, and 4.5 nm grown on SiO2/Si substrates were measured at 16 K. A blue shift in the excitonic emission was observed for shorter dots due to a larger quantum confinement effect. The fractional-dimensional space model was used to estimate a dimensionality of 2.35 for ZnO nano dots with an average dot height of 2.5 nm.
