In this study, we synthesized ZnO particles using anionic amphiphiles as an additive. While the single-crystal particles prepared in the absence of such amphiphiles had a hexagonal rod-like shape, those fabricated using anionic amphiphilic molecules had a hexagonal plate-like shape. The anionic amphiphiles inhibited crystal growth in the c-axis direction of ZnO. This demonstrated that the anionic surfactants served as crystal-growth-directing agents, controlling the shape of the ZnO particles.
