This article discusses the state of the art of solution growth of ZnO films and nanostructures. Chemical bath deposition (CBD), hydrothermal deposition, and electrodeposition (ED) are presented, where the interplay between experimental parameters and film properties can be highlighted. All of the methods allow the growth of ZnO with high structural quality and morphologies ranging from nanorods to dense films to nanoporous structures. The growth appears to be controlled by heterogeneous nucleation in supersaturated solutions, in the bulk for CBD, and at the interface for ED. Various emerging applications are presented, from light-emitting devices to solar cells and piezoelectric microgenerators.
