The results of a comparative analysis of the morphology, structural and phase composition, and scintillation characteristics of ZnO tetrapods obtained by the carbothermal and gas-phase synthesis are presented. In the gas-phase synthesis, petal-type structures are formed along with classical tetrapods, crystalline quality increases, and scintillation characteristics of ZnO structures get improved. Due to the illumination time shortness, instantaneous intensity of the fast ultraviolet component with decay time of ~ 0.7-1.0 ns is two orders of magnitude higher than that of the slow component. Keywords: zinc oxide, microscopy, luminescence, scintillators, tetrapods, petals.
