• Without the use of any extra surfactant or template, hexagonal phase ZnO crystallites consisting of individual nanorods or nanorod assemblies were synthesized simply by solvothermal treatment of several nanometer ZnO2 nanoparticles in three different solvents (including ethanol, 80 wt.% hydrazine hydrate aqueous solution and ethylenediamine) at 150 deg C for 24 h. The structures and optical properties of the resultant products were characterized by means of X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and room temperature photoluminescence (RTPL) spectra. The RTPL spectra of the resultant products all showed a much stronger ultraviolet bandgap emission peaking at around 387 nm and a weaker emission associated with the defect level. The as-synthesized ZnO crystallites are promising materials for the optoelectronic devices due to their excellent UV emission properties.
