Summary: | Zn-Al layered double hydroxides (LDHs) were synthesized herein via a simple process. First, Al-doped ZnO film was deposited onto a glass substrate using the facing target sputtering system. Successful synthesis of the Zn–Al LDH was achieved via a treatment process using an aqueous solution which contains NO<sub>3</sub><sup>−</sup> anions. X-ray diffraction analysis confirmed that it was consistent with the previous Zn–Al LDH synthesis experiment data, and the calculated <i>d</i>-value was 9.1 Å. Scanning electron microscopy observations revealed that the as-synthesized sample had a plate-like structure. |
