Notes:
ZnO-SiO2 nanoparticles were synthesized using a reverse micelle technique combined with metal alkoxide hydrolysis and condensation. The size of the particles was controlled by manipulating the relative rates of the hydrolysis and condensation reaction of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) within the micro-emulsion. The average size of synthesized ZnO-SiO2 nanoparticles was in the range of 20-40 nm. The effects of synthesis parameters such as the molar ratio of water to precursor and the molar ratio of water to surfactant are discussed
