| Summary: | Zinc oxide (ZnO) had been interested today because of their unique and versatile properties in electronic devices. ZnO nanostructured was synthesized via hydrothermal method by varied the pH value from 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11. The effect of different pH values from 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 was changed the morphological, structural and optical properties. The samples were examined with Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy. SEM is to observe the morphology images of ZnO nanostructured grains. XRD revealed the detail information on the crystallographic structure and phase formation of the materials. Lastly, UV-vis spectroscopy is to measure the UV absorption for all samples. From SEM result, it had shown that the hexagonal nanorods was obtained at pH 7 and pH 11 whereas nanorods is obtain at pH 8, 9 and 10. XRD revealed that the ZnO nanostructure exhibits the hexagonal wurtzite structure and the average crystallite size of ZnO nanoparticle was calculated. UV-vis spectroscopy shows the absorption of ZnO at 300-373 nm. The resulted show the pH values effect the nanostructured growth of zinc oxide semiconductor properties in the morphology obviously and structured. © 2022 Trans Tech Publications Ltd, Switzerland.
