The ZnO nanorods were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and field emission Scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). XRD results indicated that all the ZnO nanorods were preferentially grown along 0001 direction (c-axis). field emission Scanning electron microscopy images showed that the well-faceted hexagonal ZnO nanorods were grown vertically from the silicon(100) substrates. {\^A}{\copyright} (2013) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.} }
