Abstract
Meso- and nanoporous solids used as supports for highly dispersed meta l or semiconductor nanoparticles represent a promising class of materi als for potential nanoscale devices. The electrical and optical proper ties of zeolite Y supported SnO2 nanoparticles were studied by use of impedance and UV diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. When subjected to r eductive and oxidative atmospheres the samples reveal sensitive change s in their properties which are different to that of bulk SnO2.
