Abstract
Zinc oxide ZnO nanoparticles with hexagonal shape were produced using chemical precipitation synthesis with a molar ratio of 1:1. The morphology, chemical composition and microstructure were investigated with X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and field emission gun high resolution transmission electron microscopy (FEG-HRTEM). XRD demonstrated that all hexagonal particles formed are of wurtzite crystal structure with preferable [0001] growth direction. The hexagonal wurtzite crystalline structure was determined using the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) technique. The experimental results indicate that chemical precipitation method provides a simple way for synthesis that can be applied to other materials.
