Morphology Control of ZnO Particles in Liquid Phase

Article Preview

Abstract:

We realized morphology control of ZnO crystals and prepared ZnO particles with variety of shapes such as hexagonal, ellipse, two large needles with small needles and multi-needles. The morphology control was achieved by the control of super saturation degree of aqueous solutions. All of the particles showed X-ray diffraction of single ZnO phase. The control of crystal growth and particle morphology in this system would contribute to the development of future crystalline materials and devices.
