ZnO commonly exhibits luminescence in the visible spectral range due to different intrinsic defects. In order to study defect emissions, photoluminescence from ZnO nanostructures prepared by different methods (needles, rods, shells) was measured as a function of excitation wavelength and temperature. Under excitation at 325 nm, needles exhibited orange-red defect emission, rods exhibited yellow defect emission, while shells exhibited green defect emission. Obvious color change from orange to green was observed for needles with increasing excitation wavelengths, while nanorods (yellow) showed smaller wavelength shift and shells (green) showed no significant spectral shift. Reasons for different wavelength dependences are discussed.
