| Description |
This article presents novel attempt to synthesis
of fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO) nanoparticles by sol–gel
technique. The synthesized FTO nanoparticles were
obtained after calcination. Temperatures of calcination
were 600 and 700 degree C due to identify changes in the particles size growth. A DG/DTA and FTIR study identifies
the oxide and formation of the nanopowders. The XRD
studies confirm the tetragonal crystallite structure of fluorine doped tin oxide. The TEM image confirms the size of
FTO particles in nanoscale. The electrical studies on FTO
nanopowders results the decrease in resistivity profile with
increasing calcinations. The optical band gap studies for
sol–gel synthesis FTO nanoparticles is found to be in the
range of 4.11–3.84 eV conforming decreasing optical band
gap with increasing calcinating temperatures.
