Abstract:
The distinct electronic properties, including p-type semiconducting and a wide optical band gap, renders SnO suitable for applications such as microelectronic devices, gas sensors and electrodes. However, the synthesis of SnO is rather challenging due to the instability of the oxide, which is usually obtained as a by-product of SnO
