description The exceptional characteristics of one-dimensional zinc oxide (ZnO), which has applications in electrical, electrochemical, electromechanical, and sensing devices, make it one of the most promising nanostructures. At various continuous laser irradiation times of 20, 25, and 30 minutes, respectively, utilizing a simple and quick laser-assisted chemical bath deposition (LACBD) method on glass substrates with a three-hours post-annealing at 400 oC. Functional ZnO nanostructures known as micronanorods with satisfactory structural, morphological, and optical properties were grown on a glass substrate coated with various metal buffer layers of nickel (Ni), titanium (Ti), using RF sputtering, and iron (Fe), using thermal evaporation.
