It also covers the recent advancements in fabrication of ZnO-based nanostructures, DNA-based nanostructures, polymer-based nanostructures, and metal-based nanostructures and their widespread applications in the field of diagnostics, therapeutics, and others. Some of the methods used in bottom-up approach include plasma arcing, chemical vapor deposition process, metal organic decomposition, laser pyrolysis, molecular beam epitaxy, solgel method, wet synthesis, and self-assembly processes. Several fabrication techniques have been described in the literature for fabrication of ZnO nanostructures, such as sputtering, laser ablation, molecular beam epitaxy, physical vapor deposition, thermal evaporation, electrochemical deposition, template-based synthesis, and solgel methods (Yao et al. ./cache/cord-018046-jzoykn0y.txt ./txt/cord-018046-jzoykn0y.txt
