Controllable Growth of the ZnO Nanorod Arrays on the Al Substrate and Their Reversible Wettability Transition

High-quality ZnO nanorod arrays are formed using the ZnO nanoflakes on the Al substrate as seed layer. A reversible wettability transition can be easily achieved via alternation of UV irradiation and dark storage. The physical adsorption of the water molecules on the surface of ZnO nanorod arrays is...
