Popis: Two types of ZnO nanostructures were electro-hydrothermally deposited on mesh 100 and 200 copper grids. To investigate the nanostructures, multiple material analyses were used to analyze the material properties. FESEM images indicate that nanoflow-ers/nanorods could be grown on the mesh 100 copper grids while a single layer of ZnO nanorods could be grown on the mesh 200 copper grids. Since the size of the grid holes might influence the chemical reactions during the growth of the nanostructures, all the other material analyzes also reveale1 distinct material characteristics of these two types of nanostructures on the copper grid. Based on the experimental results, modulating the ZnO nanostructure will be helpful for future applications of ZnO nanostructures on copper substrates.
