ABSTRACT Wurtzite hexagonal ZnO semiconductor nano-rods (NRs) thin films were grown on silicon substrates and silver wire with diameter equal 68 nm. Sol gel (SG) and aqueous chemical growth (ACG) methods by two steps of preparation (seed layers and nano-rod growth) are used for samples preparation. The structural and morphological properties are evaluated using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The proposed iron ion ...
