TI  - Investigation of substrate influence on tin dioxide nanostructures synthesized 
      using horizontal furnace.
PG  - 8233-6
AB  - SnO2 nanostructures were directly synthesised by chemical vapour transport on 
      different substrates in a horizontal furnace. The influence of substrate on the 
      morphology of these nanostructures was investigated by changing the substrate 
      type, coating, and temperature. The SnO2 nanowires and nanorods were one 
      dimensional (1D) structures with widths and lengths of 50-200 nm and several 
      micrometers respectively. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images show 
      formation of short nanorods with lengths of less than 1 microm on indium-tin 
      oxide (ITO) substrates. The effect of substrate temperature on growth was 
      studied. SnO2 nanowires were obtained using silicon substrate, and the effect of 
      Au coating on the size and morphology of these structures was proposed. By 
      coating the Si wafer with a thin layer of Au, the size of the nanostructure was 
      reduced and the length increased. The differences in size and morphology are 
      shown by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectra 
      show tetragonal structures for both substrates.
