Abstract

The indium tin oxide (ITO) nanoparticles with cubic structure were synthesized by heating a mixture of indium tin hydroxide and sodium chloride at low temperature of 300 °C for 2 h and washing with water. The effects of sodium chloride addition on the ITO phase and morphology were investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). It is found that sodium chloride addition helps the formation of cubic structure of ITO nanoparticles. The particle size of the resulted ITO powder is about 3 nm.
