The present invention relates to a novel amino acid-zinc hydroxide hybridized nanomaterials and a preparation method thereof. The present invention further discloses the different type of hybrid nanomaterials comprising at least one amino acids and zinc hydroxide. The said nanomaterials are of definite crystal morphology. The process provided by the invention is simple, economic, and environmentally friendly and it has the advantage of providing controlled crystal morphology over uniform size. These hybrid materials may be further use in photodiodes and solar cells.
