Synopsis

In this present work, we synthesized WO3-SnO2 nanocomposite by solid hydrothermal route. The prepared nanocomposite was investigated for its various characteristic properties. The optical characterization has been done by UV/Vis spectroscopy. The FTIR spectroscopy has been used to confirm the chemical bonding of WO3 and SnO2. The XRD and FESEM have been used to investigate the structural and morphological characteristics of as prepared nanocomposite. The sensing properties have been studied using the electrical properties of prepared nanocomposite. The optical and structural characterization confirms the formation of WO3-SnO2 nanocomposite. The sensitivity has been calculated from the I-V characteristics of WO3-SnO2 nanocomposite.
