Abstract
Hexagonal nanodisks of ZnO were fabricated by a solution process using ZnO nanoparticles and their cathodoluminescence characteristics were investigated. Monochromatic cathodoluminescence images showed that luminescence was spatially localized near the boundary of the nanodisk and spectral analysis in conjunction with the intensity profile consistently ascribed the spatial localization of luminescence to whispering-gallery-modelike-enhanced emission.
