The physical properties of ZnO nanofilms are studied as a function of the urea concentration in the growth solution. ZnO is grown by Chemical Bath Deposition technique activated by microwaves (CBD-AμW). The chemical stoichiometry was determined by energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) measurements on the ZnO nanofilms. By X-rays scattering is obtained a polycrystalline hexagonal wurtzite type structure of grown ZnO films. By Raman spectroscopy is confirmed the wurtzite type structure of ZnO films and their Raman spectra show 4 main peaks at 444, 338, 104 and 78 cm-1 that correspond to the modes E2high, (E2high - E2low), E2low, which are associated to the oxygen and zinc sublattices and an unidentified band.
