Abstract
In this research, ZnO nanorods have been successfully synthesized via wet chemical method. XRD results revealed the single phase nature with the wurtzite structure of the as prepared ZnO nanorods. By only varying the concentration of Hexamethylenetetramine (HMT) in the solution, morphology of ZnO changed from hexagonal facet nanorods to pencil like nanorods and size of nanorods also changed. The band gap of as-synthesized ZnO nanorods was found to increase with increasing the concentration of HMT in the solution. The narrow full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) of the UV emission of PL spectra indicated that the grown ZnO nanorods have high crystal quality and is well matched with the obtained XRD results. These results revealed that the concentration of Hexamethylenetetramine plays a vital role to control the properties of ZnO nanorods.
