Tin oxide thin films were successfully fabricated by the sol-gel spin coating technique for varying number of cycles. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The effect of a number of cycles on the structural and optical properties of SnO2 films was studied. The crystallite size is changed from 7.7 to 31.1 nm by increasing the number of ...

Aluminosilicate gel precursor having mullite composition was synthesized from inorganic salts of aluminum and silicon by employing the sol-gel method. Chemical analysis, surface area and bulk density measurements were performed to characterize the dried gel. The course of the mullitization was examined by FT-IR analysis which confirmed the diphasic nature of the gel. ...
