IntroductionIntroduction

The effects of SO42− ion concentrations on the phase

evolution of electrochemical deposited films have been investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR).

The results show that SO42− ion concentration plays a very

important role in directing the phase evolution of thick films from rod-like ZnO to plate-like zinc hydroxysulfate under fast hydroxylation.

When ZnSO4 concentrations are below 0.54mM,the oriented growth of ZnO rods tends to be enhanced with the increase of ZnSO4 concentration.

Otherwise, the vertically aligned zinc hydroxysulfate plates can be formed by the introduction of SO42− ions in nanocrystals.

ConclusionConclusion

In present work, we demonstrate that SO42− ion

concentration plays a very important role in controlling the phase evolution of films from ZnO rods to zinc hydroxysulfate plates under fast hydroxylation using electrochemical deposition.

At lower ZnSO4 concentrations, vertically aligned ZnO rods tend to dominate the film morphology.

On the contrary, SO42− ions can participate in the film

growth under fast hydroxylation, thus leading to the formation of vertical aligned zinc hydroxysulfate plates.

Most importantly, this work facilitates not only the researches about the nature of chemical reactions under electric field, but also the applications in optoelectronics, field effect transistor and solar cells.
