Gases Effects for Synthesis ZnO Nanostructures Using Carbon Assisted

Abstract:

The morphologies of ZnO nanostructured were synthesized by carbon assisted. The materials source will be prepared by mixing Zn, ZnO and coconut shell charcoal or graphite. The materials source and silicon substrates were put in quartz tube of furnace, heated in difference gases. When, the temperature was cooled down to natural room temperature. The materials sources and silicon substrates will be studied by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and an energy dispersive X-rays instrument (EDX). The results showed that ZnO nanostructures materials such as nanotatrapods, nanowires, nanorods and nanoparticles can be observed.
