Monodispersed ZnO nanoparticles from a single molecular precursor

Chem Commun (Camb). 2003 Aug 21:(16):2068-9. doi: 10.1039/b306163a.

Abstract

Monodispersed ZnO nanoparticles are easily prepared by the thermolysis of EtZnO(i)Pr as a single molecular precursor and TOPO without any extra solvent as well as any oxygen source.
