The ZnO nanostructures were hydrothermally synthesized on glass and Al substrates, respectively, using zinc chloride, zinc nitrate, and zinc acetate as precursor. The as-prepared products were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). Different ZnO nanostructures were obtained, such as nanorods, nanosheets, flower-like nanostructures and so on. The effects of the substrates and anions of zinc salts on the morphologies of the resulting products have been investigated.
