Current State of Studies on Synthesis and Application of Zinc Stannate (Review)

Аннотация

The published works representing the current state of research in the field of the synthesis and application of zinc stannate are reviewed. The data on crystalline modifications of ZnSnO₃ are provided and the primary areas of the application of zinc stannate are investigated. Options of various synthesis methods, such as chemical vapor deposition, reactions under high pressure, hydrothermal synthesis, ion-exchange and solid-phase reactions, the coprecipitation method, and the sol-gel method, are demonstrated.
