Abstract :
Strong modifications of semiconducting oxides can be provoked by high-density electronic excitation above the Mott density. This regime corresponds to the manifestation of electron-hole plasma continuum. The nanostructuring of monocrystalline zinc oxide in this regime is correlated with elongation of the inter-crystalline planes and intensification of exciton photoluminescence.
