HYBRID FILM MADE FROM Zn(OH)2 NANO-SHEET AND ZnO NANO-WHISKER FILM, HYBRID FILM MADE FROM ZnO NANO-SHEET AND ZnO NANO-WHISKER FILM AND METHODS FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a hybrid film and the like made from a Zn(OH)2nano-sheet and a ZnO nano-whisker film. SOLUTION: The hybrid film made from the Zn(OH)2nano-sheet and the ZnO nano-whisker film is synthesized on a FTO substrate by: forming a ZnO whisker film on the FTO substrate; and treating the ZnO whisker film with hot water, thereby forming the Zn(OH)2nano-sheet on a surface of the ZnO whisker film. A hybrid film made from a ZnO nano-sheet and the ZnO nano-whisker film is synthesized by subjecting the hybrid film made from the Zn(OH)2nano-sheet and the ZnO nano-whisker film to a heat-treatment. The novel hybrid film has a high conductivity and a large surface area characteristic to a ZnO whisker and a high adsorption characteristic to Zn(OH)2and can be used as a DNA sensor and a protein sensor.
