Abstract

Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles have been synthesized by wet chemical processing from four different zinc precursor materials at room temperature. Synthesis of phase pure material with four different morphologies and orientations have been confirmed through different characterization techniques like, X-ray diffraction, field emission SEM, fourier transformed IR etc. The band gap energies of the synthesized materials were within specific semiconductor limits and the same have been determined from UV–Visible and photoluminescence spectra of the synthesized nanostructured ZnO materials. Thus it is possible to control ZnO nanostructures and morphologies through facile room temperature synthesis and tailor their band gaps for different application purposes.
