A general, one-step and template-free synthesis of sphere-like zinc ferrite nanostructures with enhanced photocatalytic activity for dye degradation

Spinel zinc ferrite nanospheres with diameters of about 212 nm were synthesized in high yield via a general, one-step and template-free solvothermal route. The prepared nanospheres had cubic spinel structure and exhibited good size uniformity and regularity. The absorption edge of ZnFe2O4 nanosphere...
