Abstract
Structure and optical properties of nanometer-sized SnO2 capped by a l ayer of stearic acid are investigated using TEM, XRD, ESR, UV-visible absorption spectrum, photoluminescence spectra, IR absorption spectra and Z-scan techniques. It is found that such capped SnO2 samples displ ay new optical properties, which will enlarge their applications in no nlinear optics. The relationship between structure and optical propert ies of the SnO2 nanoparticles is also discussed.
