Various one‐dimensional (1D) ZnO‐based nanostructures, including ZnO nano‐wires (NWs) grown using vapour–liquid–solid (VLS) process, ZnO/ZnSe core/shell, nitrogen‐doped ZnO and ZnMgO NWs were grown by metalorganic chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis is presented. For all the samples, a high crystalline quality is observed. Some features are emphasized such as the gold contamination of ZnO wires grown under the metal droplets in the VLS process. It is concluded that MOCVD is a suitable technique for the realization of original ZnO nanodevices.
