Abstract :
Effect of laser irradiation on ZnO nanoparticles synthesized by co-precipitation technique with the post-oxidation annealing in air atmosphere is presented. We have observed agglomeration, enlargement and deformation of the ZnO nanoparticles after laser irradiation at 355 nm using SEM, XRD analysis..
