ZnO whiskers with aspect ratios of up to 50 were synthesized by dissolving ε-Zn(OH)2 precursor in NaOH/Na2SO4 solution at room temperature, followed by aging of the resulting solution at 140 ℃ for 6 h. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analyses revealed that SO4^2- ions were primarily adsorbed on the (1 00) plane of the ZnO whiskers via an outer-sphere com- plex configuration (O-H……O), thereby promoting the one-dimensional growth of ZnO whiskers along the c-axis.展开更多
