Tin Oxide Nanostructures

Abstract

Tin oxide nanostructures and methods of fabricating tin oxide nanostructures are disclosed. Representative nanostructures include SnO2 nanowires, SnO2 nanoribbons, and SnO2 nanotubes. Another representative nanostructure includes a nanostructure having a rutile crystal lattice and an orthorhombic crystal superlattice. The nanostructure can include, but is not limited to, SnO2 nanowires, SnO2 nanoribbons, and SnO2 nanotubes.
