  In this paper, we study the zero sets of the confluent hypergeometric
function
$_{1}F_{1}(\alpha;\gamma;z):=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{(\alpha)_{n}}{n!(\gamma)_{n}}z^{n}$,
where $\alpha, \gamma, \gamma-\alpha\not\in \mathbb{Z}_{\leq 0}$, and show that
if $\{z_n\}_{n=1}^{\infty}$ is the zero set of $_{1}F_{1}(\alpha;\gamma;z)$
with multiple zeros repeated and modulus in increasing order, then there exists
a constant $M>0$ such that $|z_n|\geq M n$ for all $n\geq 1$.
