Abstract

In this paper, Tin oxide (SnO2) thin film synthesized by a simple spin coating sol-gel technique using non-alkoxide SnCl4.2H2O as a precursors. The structural, optical, electrical and gas sensing properties of the film were studied by using XRD, SEM, TEM, FTIR, PL and UV–vis techniques. The X-ray Diffraction (XRD), shows the samples have a tetragonal rutile structure. The Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) shows the average particle size is of ~11.26 nm. Gas sensing performance of synthesized SnO2 thin film was tested for ethanol gas at different operating temperatures as well as concentrations.
