Abstract

Small zinc oxide tripodlike arms were assembled at the end of nanowires through thermal evaporation of zinc powder in a horizontal tube furnace. These arms are hundreds of nanometers in length, and they are tens of nanometers in diameter, similar to that of the based nanowires. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy investigation exhibits that they are wurtzite structure and have clear twin planes at the junction of the arms and the based nanowires. The growth mechanism, Raman, and photoluminescence properties were discussed.
