The successfully synthesized ZnO powder from the sol-gel centrifugation and sol-gel storage methods were characterized and investigated by X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, UV?visible spectroscopy, and photoluminescence test to compare the properties of the nanoparticles. The best characteristic of the ZnO powder from both methods was observed when the powders were coated on an ITO glass to fabricate a PEC. The current density?voltage performances of both PECs were investigated under luminescent and dark conditions. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Materials,$x2192-1105 606 $aOptical materials 606 $aNanoscience 606 $aSemiconductors 606 $aOptical Materials 606 $aNanophysics 606 $aSemiconductors 615 0$aOptical materials. 615 0$aNanoscience. 615 0$aSemiconductors. 615 14$aOptical Materials. 615 24$aNanophysics. 615 24$aSemiconductors. 676 $a537.622 700 $aAlias$b Siti Salwa$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01061954 702 $aMohamad$b Ahmad Azmin 801 0$bMiFhGG 801 1$bMiFhGG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298648403321 996 $aSynthesis of Zinc Oxide by Sol?Gel Method for Photoelectrochemical Cells$94521106 997 $aUNINA
