Chemical Disposition of Zinc Oxide Use in Light Emitting Diodes and Photo Detectors

Abstract Zinc Oxide is a potential candidate for application in optoelectronics emitting blue to ultraviolet light. The compound bears fundamental advantages, including 3.37 eV wide bandgap, 60 meV large exciton binding energy, and 320 cm room temperature high optical gain. The mixture also has luminescent properties extensively researched for thin film, bulk, and nanostructure samples prepared through a range of methods and doped with various impurities. 1D semiconducting zinc oxide nanostructures have exceptional photoelectric features such as sub-wavelength, many light confinement, and ultrahigh intrinsic photoelectric gain. These Zinc Oxide nanowires do not have grain boundaries; they have a higher phase purity, and long-distance order in comparison with the polycrystalline thin films, properties that make them suitable transport carriers for advanced optoelectronic devices. The nanowires’ properties, including photoconductive gains, light emission, and excellent optical absorption that improve the performance of solar cells. Other properties include sensors, light-emitting diodes (LED), nanogenerators, and field-effect transistors. This research proposal looks into how to fabricate one-dimensional Zinc Oxide nanostructures through chemical vapor deposition for application in optoelectronic devices
