Abstracto
Nanostructured tin oxide films were prepared by depositing different sols using the so-called spray–gel pyrolysis process. SnO2 suspensions (sols) were obtained from tin (IV) tert-amyloxide (Sn(t-OAm)4) or tin (IV) chloride pentahydrate (SnCl4·5H2O) precursors, and stabilized with ammonia or tetraethylammonium hydroxide (TEA-OH). Xerogels from the different sols were obtained by solvent evaporation under controlled humidity.
