ZnO nanowires can be easily grown via vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) mechanism and are suitable for optoelectronic applications. Furthermore, they have an emission wavelength in the UV region. We developed a simple and powerful approach on basis of spin-on-glass SiO2 [1]. This approach is intrinsically scalable since every step involved can be carried out in parallel over an entire wafer. The challenge in this particular geometry is the fabrication of top metallic contacts to the nanowires in a way that the contact dose not short. In this presentation, we will demonstrate how this approach can be utilized for assembling ZnO nanowires devices. These light emitting devices are based on p-n heterostructure between ZnO nanowires and highly doped substrate. The obtaining devices show rectifying properties and under certain conditions, also light emission.
