Abstract

Zinc oxide quantum dots were prepared in diethyleneglycol using zinc acetate as a precursor compound and the particle size of the dried powders was determined using the X-ray diffraction method (XRD). It was found that quantum dot size ranges from 4 to 9 nm and is influenced by the initial zinc acetate concentration and the centrifugation speed. Theoretical predictions concerning quantum dot size by the potential morphing method showed good agreement with the measurements from XRD.
