“…The synthesis of BaSnO 3 is complicated by the need of hard reaction conditions for the formation of perovskite structure. Conventionally obtained by solid-state calcination at T > 1200 °C highly crystalline barium stannate was extensively investigated for good dielectric properties with potential use in capacitors [23,24]. With the development of wet-chemistry synthetic routes under mild conditions, e.g., hydrothermal [25,26,27,28] and lyothermal [29], ion exchange [30], coprecipitation [31] or polymerized complex methods [11,32], BaSnO 3 was found advantageous for other applications.…”
