摘要：We report observation of both free and defect-mediated excitonic emissions from temperature-dependent PL study on ZnO/graphene oxide (G-O) nanocomposite grown by ultrasonic assisted spray pyrolysis (UASP). From the temperature-dependent photoluminescence (PL) spectra of the ZnO/G-O nanocomposite, new graphene-related peak was observed at 372 nm along with the exciton transition bound to neutral acceptors or deep donors. The PL intensity of new graphene-related peaks (3.33 eV) become more prominent with increasing G-O concentration, and it was saturated or decreased with the addition of >7.0 wt% of G-O. This feature indicates that new graphene-related states were created below conduction band of ZnO, which supports the excitonic PL enhancement by graphene-embedding is contributed not by charge transfer, but by vacancy filling effect of G-O.
