Optical detection is of great significance in various fields such as industry, military, and medical treatment, especially ultraviolet (UV) photodetectors. Moreover, as the demand for wearable devices continues to increase, the UV photodetector, which is one of the most important sensors, has put forward higher requirements for bending resistance, durability, and transparency. Tin oxide (SnO2) has a wide band gap, high ultraviolet exciton gain, etc., and is considered to be an ideal material for preparing UV photodetectors. At present, SnO2-based UV photodetectors have a transparency of more than 70% in the visible light region and also have excellent flexibility of 160% tensile strain. Focusing on SnO2 nanostructures, the article mainly summarizes the progress of SnO2 UV photodetectors in flexibility and transparency in recent years and proposes feasible optimization directions and difficulties.

Abstract Tin oxide (SnO2), a versatile metal oxide due to its wide range of applications and its nature as an amphoteric oxide, has attracted researchers globally for many decades. Hydrothermal synthesis of wide band gap oxides with controllable nano shape and size is of primary attraction leading to myriad areas of applications such as electrodes in Lithium-ion batteries, gas sensing, photo-catalyst etc. to name a few. In this work, we have synthesized different types of nanostructures of Tin oxide through low temperature(180oC) Hydrothermal process by varying the concentration of its precursor solution (SnCl4.5H2O) from 0.0625M to 0.25M. The characterization of as -Synthesized SnO2 done using UV-Vis spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive X ray (EDX) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) confirm synthesis of tin oxide and formation of various nanostructures as a function of concentration of the precursor solution. The evolution of various shapes of nanostructures has been discussed in light of existing theories.

ABSTRACTTin oxide (SnO2) with rutile structure is a wide-band gap semiconductor that has been used extensively in optoelectronic devices and sensors. A fibrous shape is especially favorable for the sensor applications. The authors synthesized micro-/nano- SnO2 fibers from a precursor solution of poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO), chloroform (CHCl3) and dimethyldineodecanoate tin (C22H44O4Sn) using electrospinning and metallorganics decomposition techniques. This paper uses Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis, and x-ray diffraction to reveal a series of chemical and physical changes from the starting chemicals to the final product of ultra-fine SnO2 fibers: the solvent CHCl3 evaporates during the electrospinning; the organic groups in PEO and C22H44O4Sn decompose with Sn-C bond in C22H44O4Sn replaced by Sn-O between 220 and 300°C, and transform into rutile structure between 300 and 380°C; the incipient rutile lattice develops into a relatively complete degree after sintering at higher temperatures up to 600°C.

Many traditional photocatalytic materials such as ZnO and TiO2 are ultraviolet light-triggered due to their wide band gap, however indoor light and sunlight reaching the surface of the earth are in the visible light region. This research aims to fabricate a photocatalytic material that can be triggered using visible light. Ceramic composites with ZnO and CuO interfaces were constructed using heterogeneous mixing technique. The photocatalytic activities of the samples were determined through their ability to degrade methyl orange dye under visible light illumination. Results show that the existence of the ZnO-CuO interface improved the visible light photocatalytic activity of the material.
