Abstract
In this work, the effect of temperature of distilled water on the morphology of ZnO nanoporous thin films formed by anodizing was studied. ZnO nanoporous thin films were formed by anodizing of Zn plates at voltage 30 V in 500 ml distilled water of temperature ranged from 5 °C to 25°C. As anodized zinc plates were characterized by using SEM and XRD. Characterization of as anodized Zn plates using SEM showed that the morphologies of the as anodized Zn plates were significantly influenced by the temperature of distilled water. Nanoporous ZnO thin films were formed when 15 °C to 25 °C were used while ZnO thin films without nanoporous structures were formed when 5°C and 10 °C were used. XRD analysis indicated the ZnO thin films formed in distilled water of 5 °C to 25°C were of hexagonal wurtzite structures.
