Nanostructured tin dioxide: synthesis and growth of nanocrystals and nanoribbons

The objectives of this work are to supply a basic background on nanostructured materials and also to report about the obtaining of nanoparticles, mainly, tin dioxide nanocrystalline particles (obtained by using the polymeric precursor method) presenting a high stability against particle growth due to the usage of a metastable solid solution. The synthesis and growth of SnO2 nanoribbons by a carbothermal reduction process are also discussed.
