    Abstract

    Nonradiative energy transfer from the ZnO nanorods (donor) to fluorescent dye-doped polymer (acceptor) was investigated in heterostructures of ZnO nanorods/dye-doped polymer films, with the fluorescent dye, 4-(dicyanomethylene) -2-methyl-6-(4-dimethylaminostyryl)-4H-pyran, being doped into the host material, poly(9-vinylcarbazole). Introduction of the ZnO nanorods layer to the dye-doped polymer film devices turned out to give much enhanced and blueshifted photoluminescence.
