title = "Enhanced 1540 nm Emission from Er-doped ZnO Nanorod Arrays via Coupling with Localized Surface Plasmon of Au Island Film",
abstract = "Self-assembled nanorod arrays (NRAs) heterostructures that consist of a single-crystalline Er-doped ZnO NRAs grown on Au nanodot films have been synthesized by a chemical method and proposed as one of the promising optoelectronic materials since the Er intra-4f shell transition leads to 1540 nm emission for optoelectronic communication. The enhancement of 1540-nm emission of Er-doped ZnO NRAs via enhanced deep level emission of ZnO host resulted from local field enhancement effects of Au nanodot films, and subsequent energy transfer to Er3+ has been demonstrated. The micro structural analysis, electronic structure analysis, and photoluminescence characterizations have been performed to clarify the mechanism of enhanced 1540 nm emission. This paves the way to electrical pumping in a nano-system that forms NRAs of high-quality optical cavity.",
