Influence of In doping on the structural, photo-luminescence and alcohol response characteristics of the SnO2 nanoparticles

Influence of In doping on the structural, photo-luminescence and alcohol response characteristics of the SnO2 nanoparticles:

Highlights
In-doped SnO2 samples show smaller crystallinity with crystallite size: ∼7–9 nm.
EDX analyses confirm the incorporation of indium ions in the SnO2 lattice.
Raman spectra are consistent with the results of XRD and SAED pattern.
Alcohol response has been found to increase with the indium dopant concentration.
3 at% In-doped sample exhibits maximum response (96.5%) to propan-2-ol at 250 °C.
