ZnO nanowires e taua tele nanomaterials tasi-dimensional.E i ai le tele o faʻaoga i le matata o le nanotechnology.E pei o le ultra-sensitive chemical biological nanosensors, vali sela sola, moli-emitting diodes, nano lasers ma isi.
O mea taua o ZnO nanowires.

1. Fa'atinoga o le fa'aosoina i fanua
O le vaapiapi ma le umi geometry o nanowires o loʻo faʻaalia ai e mafai ona faia ni masini faʻapipiʻi lelei.

2. Mea fa'apitoa
1） Photoluminescence.O mea tau ata o nanowires e taua tele mo a latou talosaga.O le photoluminescence spectra o ZnO nanowires i le vevela o le potu e mafai ona fuaina e ala i le faʻaogaina o se moli Xe faʻatasi ai ma le umi o le galu o le 325nm.
2） Diodes moli. E ala i le fa'atupuina o n-ituaiga ZnO nanowires i luga ole p-ituaiga GaN substrates, moli-emitting diodes (LEDs) fa'avae i luga ole (n-ZnO NWS)/(p-GaN ata manifinifi) heterojunction e mafai ona fau.
3） Suau'u suauu sola. E ala i le faʻaogaina o faʻasologa o nanowires i luga o le tele o vaega, ua mafai ai ona gaosia suauʻu sola faʻapipiʻi mai i mea faʻapitoa poʻo heterojunctions inorganic.

3. uiga maaleale kasa
Ona o le tele o le vaega o luga, o le conductivity o nanowires e matua maaleale lava i suiga i luga o le kemisi. Pe a faʻapipiʻi se mole i luga o le pito i luga o le nanowire, o le faʻafeiloaʻiga o le tau e tupu i le va o le adsorbed ma le adsorbed.The adsorbed molecules e mafai ona matua suia le. meatotino dielectric o luga o le nanowires, lea e matua aafia ai le conductivity o luga. O le mea lea, o le kesi lagona o nanowires ua matua faaleleia. ZnO nanowires ua faaaogaina e fai conductance sensors mo ethanol ma NH3, faapea foi le kasa ionization sensors , masini pH intracellular, ma masini eletise eletise.

4. Catalytic faatinoga
O le tasi-dimensional nano-ZnO o se photocatalyst lelei, lea e mafai ona decompose organic mea, sterilize ma deodorize i lalo o le malamalama ultraviolet irradiation.The suʻesuʻega na faaalia foi o le catalytic fua faatatau o nano-sized ZnO catalyst sa 10-1000 taimi o vaega ZnO masani, ma fa'atusatusa i vaega fa'apitoa, e telē atu lona vaega fa'apitoa i luga ole laiga ma lautele atu le malosi, lea na avea ai ma se fa'ata'ita'iga malosi tele ma fa'amoemoega fa'aoga.
