摘要: Polar ZnO surfaces with O- and Zn-termination were studied atomic lateral force microscopy curves. Adsorbed fluid layers on both are found to dominate their adhesion properties in air. The hydrophilic O-surface has a substantially thicker adsorbed layer larger residual particle densities. Our data suggest that different preparation is required for the two before use epitaxy, may resolve some contradictions literature. also indicate be important growth of certain nanostructures.
