Zinc oxide nanorods have been successfully synthesized by vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) and hydrothermal growth under different conditions. It was confirm that, for low cost and simple processing, a seeding layer of ZnO is essentially needed on the substrates prior to the growth of nanorods so that types...
