The role of seeding in the morphology and wettability of ZnO nanorods films on different substrates

Spray pyrolysis (SP) and spray-gel (SG) techniques were used to deposit ZnO seeds on Fluor doped tin oxide glasses (FTO), heated at 350 C or 130 C, and PET heated at 90 C. The effect of seeding on the morphology and wettability of ZnO nanorods (NRs) films grown by wet chemical methods was analyzed....
