摘要
The regular hierarchical flower-like ZnO nanostructures assembled by nanosheets were successfully synthesized by one-step solution route with citrate assistance at room temperature. It was demonstrated that the concentration of citrate and the molar ratio of Zn2+/OH- had strong effect on the formation of nanosheets and self-assembly flower-like nanostructures. A reasonable formation mechanism of the flower-like nanostructures was proposed. According to UV-vis spectrum, the flower-like ZnO nanostructures exhibited strong light absorption, and the value of band gap of the obtained ZnO was estimated to be 3.26 eV. Moreover, the room-temperature photoluminescence (PL) spectrum of the sample presented only a near-band edge emission at 382 nm. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd and Techna Group S.r.l. All rights reserved.
