Abstract:
ZnO thin films of high optical quality are prepared on single crystal substrates by sol-gel technique, and zinc acetate is used as precursor in this process.The feasibility of ZnWO
4 crystal used as a substrate material was analyzed and proved by theory and experiment.The results of experiment show that lattice between ZnWO
4 a-plane and ZnO c-plane closely matches,while the mismatch of the optimum orientation lattice is only 0.83%,and the ZnWO
4 crystal wafers can be used as a fine substrate material for forming ZnO film.The strong fluorescence of the thin film is observed at 396nm when it is excited by 325nm wavelength light.
