Synthesis of 3D Nanostructured Flower-like ZnO Architecture on ZnO Thin-film by Hydrothermal Process

Controllable Synthesis of Flower-Like ZnO Nanostructure with Hydrothermal Method (RESEARCH NOTE)

Flower-like ZnO nanostructures were synthesized by decomposing Zn(OH)2 in 1,4- butanediol at 105 °C for 36 h. Size of flower-like ZnO nanostructure can be controlled by pH of the aqueous solution. In the preparation of flower-like ZnO nanostructure, zinc nitrate was used as a precursor. The morphology and microstructure of flower-like ZnO nanostructure have been characterized by scanning electr...

Electrodeposition of Nanostructured ZnO Thin Film: A Review

In this review paper, a critical analysis was carried out to investigate the effect of cathodic potential, bath temperature, time and nature of substrates on the ZnO thin films synthesized by electrodeposition technique. XRD patterns of the various deposited films were studied to examine the structural characteristics of the Nanostructured ZnO thin films. From the XRD patterns of the different ...

Impact of nanostructured thin ZnO film in ultraviolet protection

Nanoscale ZnO is one of the best choices for ultraviolet (UV) protection, not only because of its antimicrobial properties but also due to its potential application for UV preservation. However, the behavior of nanostructured thin ZnO films and long-term effects of UV-radiation exposure have not been studied yet. In this study, we investigated the UV-protection ability of sol gel-derived thin Z...

Hydrothermal synthesis and properties of hierarchical ZnO and Eu-doped ZnO 3D structures

Zinc oxide is a very interesting material for several technological applications. The properties of ZnO materials have been investigated and the influence of the 3D structure has been evaluated. Controlling experimental parameters is possible to obtain branched structures, which results in the preparation of materials presenting high surface area. Herein, we present a hydrothermal procedure to ...
