Morphological Properties Of Zinc Oxide Nanostructures Prepared By Electrochemical Process

In this work, two electrochemical methods, i.e. electrochemical deposition and anodization have been used to grow ZnO nanostructures. Cube- like nanostructures has been synthesized by electrochemical deposition, in which a mixture of equimolar zinc chloride (ZnCl2) and potassium chloride (KCl) with...
