Rapid synthesis of nanocrystalline SnO2 powders by microwave heating method

Nanocrystalline SnO2 powders of about 3 nm in size were prepared by a microwave irradiation heating technique from an aqueous solution in the presence of SnCl4 and urea. The particles were characterised by TEM, XRD, DSC, TG and reflectance spectra. A band gap is estimated to be 4.5 eV from the optic...

Zusammenfassung:Nanocrystalline SnO2 powders of about 3 nm in size were prepared by a microwave irradiation heating technique from an aqueous solution in the presence of SnCl4 and urea. The particles were characterised by TEM, XRD, DSC, TG and reflectance spectra. A band gap is estimated to be 4.5 eV from the optical measurement of the nanoparticles. 47 refs.
