Abstract
ZnO nanorods (NRs) arrays were synthesized by chemical solution deposition (CSD) method on commercial glass substrate with ZnO thin film act as seed layer prepared by sol-gel spin coating. The effect of annealing temperature of 150°C, 250°C and 500°C, respectively, on the structural growth was investigated. The observation reveals the structural improvement as the annealing temperature increased. The influence of gadolinium doping to ZnO NRs arrays was explored upon the structural and optical features. The FESEM imaging along with XRD, AFM and UV-Vis analysis were conducted to dissect the information gained by performing a study case on various gadolinium doping content in the range of 1 at. % to 4 at. %. Based on the results, the correlation between the doping content were drawn in details in this paper.
