© 2015 Elsevier Ltd. Abstract Undoped ZnO and Gd doped ZnO nanostructures were successfully synthesized by a sonochemical method. Concentration effect of Gd dopant on the phase, morphology and photocatalytic activities was investigated. An XRD analyzer was used to reveal the as-synthesized 0-3 mol%...
