Facile Hydrothermal Approach to ZnO Nanorods at Mild Temperature

In this work, ZnO nanorods are obtained through a facile hydrothermal route. The structure and morphology of the resultant products are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The experimental results indicated that the as-synthesized ZnO nanorods have an ave...
