Paper-based electronics
Researchers in Taiwan have shown that they can directly grow vertically aligned, highly crystalline and defect-free single-crystalline zinc oxide nanorods and nanoneedles on paper. Initially, the team synthesized aligned ZnO nanowires on a piece of paper that predominantly contains cellulose and calcium carbonate. The paper surface can be modified to different platforms such as conducting and semiconducting surfaces and can be protected from the external environment by being coated with a protective polymer layer. These surface modifications not only provide a conducting platform but also reduce surface roughness and damage occurring during synthesis, and they greatly enhance the alignment and uniformity of ZnO nanowires on the paper substrate. In order to demonstrate the potential for organic/inorganic hybrid junction devices on paper substrates, the team fabricated p-n junction diodes with an average active junction of 1 cm × 1 cm using zinc oxide nanowires with 90 nm diameter and 1.5 µm length, grown on a 50 nm gold-coated paper substrate.
