    In this work, a silver-coated zinc oxide nanocomposite (ZnO/Ag NC) was synthesized <i>via</i> a sol-gel method combined with ultrasonic irradiation. SEM analysis revealed uniform particle size and morphology, while UV-vis spectroscopy showed a slight absorption shift due to silver incorporation, and FT-IR confirmed successful Ag coating on ZnO nanoparticles, which was further applied to degrade methylene blue dye and showed stronger antibacterial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria compared to pure ZnO. Detailed XRD studies confirmed a well-defined wurtzite structure and revealed that the material is semi-crystalline with crystallite sizes ranging from 1 to 100 nm, averaging about 74 nm. Crystallographic parameters such as crystallite size, internal strain, and crystallinity were comprehensively analyzed using multiple models, including linear straight-line, Williamson-Hall, size-strain plot, Halder-Wagner, and Sahadat-Scherrer methods. Among these, the Williamson-Hall method and its variants (uniform deformation, uniform stress deformation, and uniform deformation energy density models) provided the most detailed insights into energy density, lattice stress, and strain. Comparative evaluation of these models confirmed strong correlations in crystallite size estimations, offering a thorough understanding of the nanocomposite's structural properties. These results underscore the promising multifunctionality of the ZnO/Ag NC for environmental and biomedical applications, supported by in-depth crystallographic characterization.
