Investigation on Structural, Surface Morphological and Dielectric Properties of Zn-doped SnO2 Nanoparticles

“…[1][2][3][4] . Further, recently, this material has created a growing interest as a nanostructured material due to its interesting electrical and optical properties arising out of large surface-to-volume ratio, quantum confinement effect, etc.…”

Zn-doped and undoped SnO2 nanoparticles: A comparative structural, optical and LPG sensing properties study

“…Tin oxide (SnO 2 ) is an important n-type wide band gap semiconductor (E g = 3.6 eV at 300 K), and has got potential applications in electronics and optoelectronics devices like transparent conducting electrodes [1], solar cells [2], flat panel displays [3], anode material for lithium ion batteries [4], etc. This material has proved itself to be one of the most attractive materials for gas sensor applications due to its special properties such as chemical and thermal stability; natural non-stoichiometry and stable rutile phase [5][6][7][8][9][10].…”

Fabrication of In-doped SnO2nanowire arrays and its field emission investigations

“…Tin oxide, as n-type and wide band gap (E g ¼ 3.6 eV) [9] semiconductor nanostructure, has potential for the applications in various field emission-based devices. It has been intensively investigated due to its inherent properties and anticipated applications in many areas such as chemical and gas sensors [10], solar cells, transistors, conducting electrodes and optoelectronic devices [9,11]. One-dimensional tin oxide nanostructures, due to their ability to introduce foreign atoms into the crystal lattice to specifically tailor the electrical and optical properties, make them highly versatile [11].…”
