Properties of ZnO and Zn Nanoparticles Produced by Electrical Discharge in Liquid Method

The physical processes used to synthesize nanoparticles today are labor-intensive and inefficient in terms of energy use. Our approach, which we employed to create nanoparticles, is straightforward and economical. Using this technique, we synthesized Zinc Oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles and investigated their characteristics using several characterization techniques. We can regulate the form and size of our nanoparticles by altering the experimental conditions, as demonstrated by our investigations. This demonstrates the importance of experimental parameters in synthesizing ZnO nanoparticles by this method. This approach produced ZnO nanoparticles that were smaller than those described in the literature and had a blue shift, as a result, greater band gap energy. Using this technique, we improved process productivity while controlling the shape of our ZnO nanoparticles.
