Abstract

This paper describes, Synthesis of zinc oxide nanorods (ZnO NRs) using hydrothermal technique at different growth time. The structural and morphological properties were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Energy Dispersive X-Ray (EDX) and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FE-SEM). The ZnO NRs were obvious hexangular wurtzite structure and preferentially oriented along the c-axis (002) and growth vertically to the substrates. The optical properties were studied. From UV-Visible spectrophotometer and Photoluminescence (PL), the optical band gap energy of all ZnO NRs samples (S1, S2 and S3) were calculated to be (3.425 eV, 3.4 eV, 3.425 eV) respectively. Also, the effect of growth time on ZnO nanorods was studied.
