This review paper discusses the influence of morphology and crystallographic structure on
gas-sensing characteristics of metal oxide conductometric-type sensors. The effects of …

Empirically, intrinsic defects in SnO2 are known to give rise to a net oxygen substoichiometry
and n-type conductivity; however, the atomistic nature of the defects is unclear. Through first …

Recently, special attention has been paid to the syntheses of micro/nanostructured
crystallites with high‐energy crystal facets, because high‐energy crystal surfaces usually …

Chapter 1 provides a tutorial on calculating structures, properties and energies of solid state
chemical systems using ab initio quantum methods. Concepts covering the direct lattice …

We investigated the CO sensing mechanism of SnO2 (110) surface by density functional
theory calculation. The CO sensing mechanism of SnO2 surface strongly depends upon the …

Two major chemical processes, acidobasic and redox, track the adsorption mechanism on
