  • Solution-based synthesis of doped ZnO nanostructures
    Patent number: 9637837
    Abstract: Methods of making electrically conductive, doped zinc oxide nanowires and nanowire films are provided. The methods comprises the steps of forming an aqueous solution comprising a dopant-containing precursor salt, a zinc-containing precursor salt and a pH buffering agent and heating the aqueous solution to a temperature below its boiling point in the presence of seed crystals, whereby doped zinc oxide nanowires are grown in situ from the seed crystals in the aqueous solution.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 15, 2013
    Date of Patent: May 2, 2017
    Assignee: Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation
    Inventors: Xudong Wang, Fei Wang, Alexander V. Kvit
