Abstract
The laser spectra of the ZnO powder and complex structures and the time evolution of the spectra are studied at room temperature using low- and high-level pumping with nanosecond laser pulses. The ZnO complex structures consist of a dense core and a loose sheath formed of tetrapod crystallites. The nature of the laser modes that contribute to the spectra is discussed. A simplified model of such modes is proposed and analyzed. It is demonstrated that, in the powder, the modes are densely concentrated in the UV range of the zinc-oxide emission. In the complex structure, several laser modes are spectrally separated. We conclude that the modes are related to the tetrapods.
