Abstract

• Large scale SnO 2 assembles grew on a flexible carbon cloth by a simply thermal evaporation method. • The morphology and microstructure of the as-synthesized SnO 2 assembles were investigated in detail. • The growth mechanism of the as-synthesized SnO 2 product was proposed based experimental results. • Room temperature photoluminescence property of the as-obtained product was also studied. Novel SnO 2 assembles by many nanosheets are successfully synthesized on a flexible carbon cloth through a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method at 750 °C. The as-prepared products are characterized by using a series of test techniques, including scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectrum and the spectrophotometer. A possible growth mechanism is temporarily proposed. Photoluminescence (PL) spectrum of the as-prepared SnO 2 product shows a weak blue emission peak at 436 nm and a strong green emission peak centered at 526 nm, which may be ascribed to the defects associated with the structures.
