| Popis: | Zinc oxide nanorods have been synthesized by microwave assisted method using zinc nitrate, ethylene glycol and sodium hydroxide as a precursors. The material was characterized by XRD, SEM, EDAX and UV–Visible techniques. XRD analysis revealed all the relevant Bragg’s reflections for wurtzite (hexagonal phase) structure of zinc oxide. The average particle size was obtained 34 nm from the Williamson–Hall plot. The value of particle size determined from XRD was in good agreement with the SEM and TEM results. The direct optical band gap was found to be 3.13 eV. |
