Abstract
The influence of the chemical composition of the electrolyte and its temperature on the process of sythesis of nanosized zinc compounds by electrolytic method using zinc electrodes was investigated. X-ray studies have been conducted and its results were used to determine the composition of the obtained nanocrystal samples and its dimensioning using the Debye and the Williamson Hall methods. Comparisons of the results of dimensioning of nanocrystals by both methods were made. Also discussed the possibilities of synthesis of nanoparticles of zinc oxide, zinc sulfide and hydrozincite by electrolytic method. It is shown, that depending on the electrolyte composition, nanocrystals of zinc oxide, zinc sulfide, hydrozincite or their mixture are obtained. The effect of thermal annealing on the samples composition and dimensioning was investigated.

Summary
The creation of high-quality electronic devices is possible only in the presence of appropriate materials with the necessary physical properties, which depend on their chemical composition, purity, structural perfection, synthesis technologies and post processing. AIIBVI solid solutions and compounds are promising semiconductor materials for use in modern science and technology [1]. Zinc oxide (ZnO) is a multifunctional material that is widely used in semiconductor devices, optoelectronics, gas sensors, production of dielectric and magnetic materials. Is used as a buffer layer in such solar cells, but with use of zinc sulfide (ZnS), the efficiency of a solar cell will increase [3]. This work is a continuation of our work [9] where the influence of type of the electrolyte on the synthesis of zinc compounds nanocrystals at room temperature was. The aim of this work is to study the influence of temperature and electrolyte composition on the processes of synthesis of zinc compounds nanocrystals by the electrolytic method
