Atomic layer deposition of ZnS nanotubes
Abstract
We report on growth of high-aspect-ratio (300) zinc sulfide nanotubes with variable, precisely tunable, wall thicknesses and tube diameters into highly ordered pores of anodic alumina templates by atomic layer deposition (ALD) at temperatures as low as 75 C. Various characterization techniques are employed to gain information on the composition, morphology, and crystal structure of the synthesized samples. Besides practical applications, the ALD-grown tubes could be envisaged as model systems for the study of a certain class of size-dependent quantum and classical phenomena.
