| Abstract | Zinc oxide (ZnO) thick films were analyzed by high-resolution X-ray diffraction (HR-XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy, and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy at room temperature. The films were grown on glass substrates using different molar concentrations of aqueous solution (0.02, 0.04, and 0.06 M) via a simple hydrothermal method. This method uses glass bottles with rubber caps as reactor vessels (100 mL) and, thus, is classified as a green chemistry technique. Hexahedral zinc nitrate (Zn (NO$_{3}$)$_{2}$·6H$_{2}$O), hexamethylenetetramine (C$_{6}$H$_{12}$N$_{4}$), and deionized water were used as starting materials and were reacted in the presence of heat. HR-XRD measurements confirmed that the diffraction peaks of the polycrystalline structure films can be assigned to the hexagonal-shaped wurtzite ZnO. In addition, the PL spectra show that the integrated intensity decreases with the increase in ZnO content. The SEM images also revealed the existence of hexagonal ZnO nanotubes in the 0.02 M sample, and these nanotubes are gradually converted into hexagonal nanorods with the increase in ZnO content. Moreover, the photocatalytic activity of both nanostructures was measured based on the degradation of methyl blue (MB) by using ultraviolet light (λ = 366 nm). Results showed that the ZnO nanotubes degraded MB more effectively than the nanorods. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
