Nanostructured 'Anastacia' flowers for Zn coating by electrodepositing ZnO at room temperature

- Functional coating of Zn with ZnO 'Anastacia' flowers.
- Flowers are composed by nano-hexagonal units of single-crystal wurtzite ZnO.
- The growth mechanism of these flowers is discussed.
- Room temperature yield cost-effective electrodeposited ZnO 'Anastacia' flowers.
