Abstract
ZnO nanoparticles have been synthesized by ultrasonic irradiation of an aqueous-alcoholic/aqueous-alcoholic-ethylenediamine (EDA) solutions of zinc nitrate and sodium hydroxide. ZnO nanoparticles possess hexagonal wurtzite structures and they exhibit special photoluminescence properties with a red-shift of 22 nm in UV emission band. It is found that the ultrasonic irradiation time and the solvents both influence the growth mechanism and optical properties of ZnO nanoparticles. The possible growth mechanism of ZnO nanoparticles formation by sonochemical method has been tried to discuss.
