The Al-doped ZnO nanocrystals were synthesized by a solvothermal method with nominal Al content ranging from 3 to 7 at.% in the precursors, and the Al solubility in ZnO nanocrystals was investigated. When the nominal Al content in the precursors was less than 5 at.%, the single-phase Al-doped ZnO nanocrystals with wurtzite structure were synthesized at 260 oC for 20 h. The maximum Al solubility in ZnO nanocrystals was about 2.97 at.%, as the the nominal Al content in the precursor was 5 at.%. In the solvothermal process, the Al-doped ZnO nanocrystals tended to grow along the c-axis direction to form nanorods based on the oriented-attachment growth mechanism.

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
