In this work, pure and Zn ion doped SnO₂ nanorods (Zn:SnO₂) were prepared by hydrothermal method. Structural and microstructural properties of these nanorods were characterized by X-ray diffraction and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy analysis. Further, the Zn:SnO₂ nanorods have been systematically investigated through optical studies such as UV–visible, Raman and photoluminescence spectroscopies. The stochiometric composition of the Zn:SnO₂ had been confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy studies. The samples revealed out that the dopant Zn ions creating the oxygen vacancies, which can enhance the gas sensing performance of SnO₂. As a result, the Zn doped SnO₂ nanorods are very suitable for gas sensing applications.

在这项工作中，通过水热法制备了纯的和 Zn 离子掺杂的 SnO ₂纳米棒 (Zn:SnO ₂ )。这些纳米棒的结构和微观结构特性通过 X 射线衍射和高分辨率透射电子显微镜分析进行了表征。此外，Zn:SnO ₂纳米棒已经通过光学研究，如紫外-可见光、拉曼和光致发光光谱进行了系统研究。X射线光电子能谱研究证实了Zn:SnO ₂的化学计量组成。样品表明掺杂剂Zn离子产​​生氧空位，这可以增强SnO ₂的气敏性能。结果，Zn掺杂的SnO ₂ 纳米棒非常适合气体传感应用。
