This research synthesised zinc oxide (ZnO) structure by a hydrothermal method.ZnO
samples were prepared using different molarities of zinc (Zn) precursor, ranging from 0.10 to 0.16 M.
Structural and morphological properties were characterised by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning
electron microscopy (SEM).The SEM images show that
the ZnO samples are randomly oriented with average diameters of 209, 325, 295 and 348 nm when
using 0.10, 0.12, 0.14 and 0.16 M of the precursor, respectively.The XRD patterns show that all samples are prominently grown along the
three diffraction peaks at (001), (002) and (101) planes.The average crystallite sizes for the ZnO structure
with 0.10, 0.12, 0.14 and 0.16 M precursor are 48, 51, 49 and 31 nm, respectively.
