Swift Synthesis of ZnO Nanorods by Microwave Hydrothermal Method

Journal Title: International Journal of Physics and Research (IJPR) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 4

Abstract

A new, simple, large yield, low cost, microwave assisted hydrothermal method to synthesize high quality ZnO nanorods has been adopted. The microwave assisted hydrothermal synthesis method brought significant benefits like greater speed and yield compared to the traditional methods. The present article utilized zinc acetate, sodium hydroxide solutions as precursors which exerted a tremendous effect on morphology and size of ZnO nanorods. The scanning electron microscoping (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV Spectroscopy, FTIR analysis revealed the morphology and particle size of ZnO nanorods having around 40nanometer in diameter and 0.8micrometer in length formulate 1500C with 120minutes growth time. This current method suitable for large scale production of ZnO nanorods and could be extended to metal oxide nanostructures.
