Versions Notes
In the original publication [1], reference [159], “Khan, A.; Edberg, J.; Nur, O.; Willander, M. A novel investigation on carbon nanotube/ZnO, Ag/ZnO and Ag/carbon nanotube/ZnO nanowires junctions for harvesting piezoelectric potential on textile. J. Appl. Phys. 2014, 116, 034505”, has been retracted and removed. With this correction, the order of some references has been adjusted accordingly. The affected content in Section 6, Paragraph 6 has been updated and should read as follows:
Figure 14 shows ZnO nanorods with hexagonal (0001) facets grown on a seeded substrate. The PFM model illustrates the cantilever deflections on the nanorod. During scanning with the AFM tip, a characteristic DC voltage is applied, creating an open-circuit voltage [159], as shown in Figure 15.
In addition, Figure 14 and its caption have been updated accordingly to reflect this change. The correct Figure 14 and its caption appear below.
The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
