摘要： ZnO nanopowder is successfully synthesized by annealing the precursors in oxygen gas using the chemical precipitation method. Structural and optical properties of thus synthesized ZnO nanopowder are characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and photoluminescence (PL). The morphology of ZnO nanopowders evolves from nanorod to cobble as annealing temperature increases from 500 to 1000~\du, while spiral structures are observed in the samples annealed at 900 and 1000~\du. The PL spectra of ZnO nanopowder consist of largely green and yellow emission bands. The green emission from ZnO nanopowder depends strongly on the annealing temperature with a peak intensity at a temperature lower than 800~℃ while the yellow emission is associated with interstitial oxygen \rm O_\i.
