Abstract

The novel SnO diskettes have been synthesized by evaporating either SnO or SnO₂ powders at elevated temperature. Disregard the source material being SnO or SnO₂, the SnO diskettes are formed at a low-temperature region of 200-400 °C. Two types of diskette shapes have been identified: the solid-wheel shape with a drop center rim (type I) and the diskette with cone peak(s) and spiral steps (type II). The diskettes are determined to be tetragonal SnO structure (P4/nmm), with their flat surfaces being (001). The formation of the SnO diskettes is suggested to result from a solidification process. The structural evolution from SnO diskettes to SnO₂ diskettes has been investigated by oxidizing at different temperatures. The result shows that the phase transformation from SnO to SnO₂ occurs in two processes of decomposition and oxidization, and the decomposition process consists of two steps: first from SnO to Sn₃O₄ and then from Sn₃O₄ to SnO₂.
