Characterization and antibacterial activity of nanostructured ZnO thin films synthesized through a hydrothermal method

Nanostructured ZnO films have been successfully synthesized on Zn substrates by a simple hydrothermal method at 120°C in 24h. The morphologies of the products were controlled by the following alkaline precursor solutions: NaOH, LiOH and NH 4 OH, which played a role in the crystallization process by...
