"Size-Dependent Photoconductance in SnO2 Nanowires";
Small, 1 (2005), 7; 713 - 717.



English abstract:
Tin oxide (SnO2) nanowires of different diameters can be conveniently grown by combining the chemical influence of a single-molecular precursor [Sn(OtBu)4] with vapor-liquid-solid growth. Upon illumination with UV light at a wavelength of 370 nm, the nanowires exhibit interesting photoconductance, which can be modulated by tuning the wire diameter, as demonstrated for samples possessing radial dimensions in the range 50-1000nm.

Keywords:
chemical vapor deposition; electron microscopy; nanowires; photoconductivity; single-source precursors
