Abstract

We report the synthesis of Zinc Oxide (ZnO) nanorods on the flexible Polyethylene tetraphalate (PET) substrate by chemical bath deposition and microwave irradiation methods. X-Ray diffraction and Field emission scanning microscopic data confirm the growth of nanorod. In the microwave process, the formation of nanoflowers was also observed along with the nanorods. The band gap of the grown ZnO nanorods by chemical bath deposition and microwave methods was found to be 3.0 eV and 3.2 eV, respectively.
