ZAO nanorod arrays with high preferential c-axis orientation and excellent photovoltaic performance were prepared in order to apply it extensively. Aluminum- doped zinc oxide thin films were deposited on glass substrates by sol-gel method.And then by controlling processing parameters such as the amount of doped aluminum and stability, etc.well-aligned Al-doped ZnO nanorod arrays with a narrow diameter distribution were successfully grown on substrates by hydrothermal method, where the substrates were spin-coated with seed layer.The experiments show that the 2% aluminum-doped and diameter of about 50nm of ZAO thin film nanorod arrays has the best performance photoluminescence and surfactants can promote the growth of ZAO rod-like nano-structures and contribute to the formation of ZAO nanorod arrays with highly oriented nanorod arrays.

Fabrication and performance of metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM)–type intrinsic zinc oxide-coated, aluminium-doped ZnO nanorod array-based ultraviolet photoconductive sensors were reported and discussed. The Al-doped ZnO nanorod arrays were prepared using sonicated sol-gel immersion method. The coating process of intrinsic ZnO onto Al-doped ZnO nanorod arrays was performed using radio-frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering at different deposition times varying from 0 to 10 min. We observed that responsivity of the sensors decreased with increasing intrinsic ZnO deposition time, decreasing from 4.81 A/W without coating to 1.37 A/W after 10 min of coating. Interestingly, the sensitivity of the sensors improved with intrinsic ZnO coating, having a maximum value of 19.0 after 1 min coating.
