ATO nanoparticles directly depends of the size and morphology

Generally, transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) like antimony tin oxide and its nanoscale crystals combine transparency quality in the visible range of electromagnetic waves with high electrical conductivity making them considerable materials for several optoelectrochemcial applications. TCOs like antimony tin oxide nanoparticles are produced predominantly and extensively as thin layers and coatings. However, there has been a fast-growing trend and interest in obtaining nanosized crystals as small as possible to take advantage of novel nanoparticles and improved properties that add to the bulky mother materials. The colloidal dispersion of antimony tin oxide nanoparticles is of great interest for wet chemical deposition purposes. As the chemical and physical properties of materials like ATO nanoparticles directly depend on the size and morphology, synthesizing this class of agents is a significant step for humidity sensing applications. In a synthesis procedure based chemical precipitation method, a solution of hydrochloric acid (HCl) is prepared, and a mixture of SnCl2.H2O and SbCl2 with the ratio of 1:4 is added to the acid solution with a consecutive dropwise addition of ammonium hydroxide to them. In the next step, polyethylene glycol as a capping agent is added to the mixture while vigorously stirring for around 24 hours until all the ingredients complete the reaction. The resulting crystals are dried at 80°C for 8 hours and calcined at 400°C 2.
