Abstract

Tree-like SnO nanodendrites in large amounts have been prepared through two-step reactions. The nanoparticles used as the precursors have taken aggregation forming tree-like or string of nanodendrtie. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS), respectively. The results showed that molar ratio of the ethanol/distilled water is an important factor for formation of the different dendrite structures. There are different morphologies between tree-like SnO nanowhiskers and bunch of SnO nanorods. However, they are growing along the .
