S solution. The crystal structure and morphology of the as-synthesized samples were investigated by means of X- ray diffraction(XRD)
scanning electron microscope(SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The results show that the as-synthesized ZnO crystals are hexagonal wurtzite structure. SEM images indicated that ZnO hexagonal nanorods grew along
c
axis and the growth mechanism of ZnO nanorods was discussed. At low Zn

concentration
the morphology of the ZnO nanostructure is flower-like collection assembled from rod-like dispersed single crystals. With the increasing of Zn
+2
concentration
the morphology of ZnO nanostructure changed into spherical collection. The core/shell structure is composed of both ZnO and ZnS. All the products of ZnO nanocrystals exhibited similar photoluminescence characteristics
while the core/shell structure showed an improved emission feature.
