Abstract

Using the mixture of zinc oxide and graphite powders as source materials, zinc oxide nanodisks with bulk quantity were fabricated by vapor-phase transport method. The nanodisks have perfect hexagonal shape with about 3μm in diagonal and 300nm in thickness. The growth is favored along six symmetric directions of ±[101¯0], ±[11¯00], and ±[011¯0] with the typical growth along [0001] direction suppressed, which directly leads to the formation of zinc oxide nanodisk. The microstructure and growth mechanism are discussed.
