Zinc blende-oxide phase transformation upon oxygen annealing of ZnSe shell in ZnO-ZnSe core-shell nanowires

ZnO-ZnSe core-shell nanowires have been grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition and subsequently annealed in an O2 atmosphere. It has been found that the incorporation of oxygen into the ZnSe shell over the 470–580 °C temperature range results in a phase transformation from zinc Blende to o...

Zusammenfassung:ZnO-ZnSe core-shell nanowires have been grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition and subsequently annealed in an O2 atmosphere. It has been found that the incorporation of oxygen into the ZnSe shell over the 470–580 °C temperature range results in a phase transformation from zinc Blende to orthorhombic and wurtzite. The X-ray diffraction pattern confirms that the heterostructures are composed of a wurtzite ZnO core and an oxide ZnSeO shell. The Raman spectroscopy study shows the appearance of additional peaks at 220 cm−1, 278 cm−1, 480 cm−1, 550 cm−1, and 568 cm−1, which reveal a phase transformation associated with the incorporation of the oxygen into the shell after annealing at 470 °C. This work opens a way to study the structure stability of ZnO-ZnSe core-shell nanowire production and help to understand the mechanisms of the oxidation in ZnO-ZnSe core-shell nanowires.
