Abstract

We report on continuous wave and time-resolved photoluminescent characteristics of MgxZn1-xO (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.18) alloy nanorods grown on Si substrates using catalyst-free metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. Low temperature time-integrated photoluminescence (PL) spectra of the alloy nanorods clearly exhibited a dominant PL peak of a single Mg xZn1-xO phase without showing any PL peak from ZnO. In addition, dominant PL peak positions of the alloy nanorods were blueshifted with increasing Mg content in the nanomaterials. Using temperature-dependent PL spectra and time-resolved PL spectra of MgxZn1-xO nanorods, we discuss the composition fluctuations in MgxZn 1-xO (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.18) nanorods.
