In the present work, ZnO nanostructures were synthesized via wet chemistry method. The seeding solution was prepared from zinc nitrate tetrahydrate and hexamethylenetetramine. Prior to the heating process, the seeding solution was immersed in cold bath (0°C). XRD analysis had shown sharp peaks in diffractogram, indicating the high crystallinity of ZnO nanostructures. The crystallite size was determined using Scherrer equation and Williamson-Hall method. Other relevant parameters including stress, strain, and energy density were calculated using Williamson-Hall assuming UDM, UDSM, and UDEDM. The results had revealed that crystallite size calculated with Williamson-Hall method is more accurate than Scherrer equation.
