Nanoscale one-dimensional (1D) semiconductor structures such as rods, tubes and wires have attracted much attention recently. ZnO nanorods are important because of their unique 1D structure with a direct wide band gap of 3.37eV and a large exciton binding energy of 60 meV at room temperature. These...
