Temperature-dependent microphotoluminescence spectroscopy is conducted from 80–857 K. A surprisingly strong high-temperature (857 K) photon emission is observed. A brief discussion is given in an attempt to understand the physical mechanisms. Technically, this finding demonstrates that the ZnO nanostructure has a potential for high-temperature optoelectronic applications. REFERENCES 1 Y. Arakawa, H. Sasaki, Appl. Phys.
