N2  - Zn1?xSnxO NRs/ITO composite photocatalytic films were fabricated by the hydrothermal method. A
concentration of Sn dopant in Zn1?xSnxO nanorods(NRs)was varied from 0% to 7%. The structural
and surface morphology characteristics of Zn1?xSnxO NRs/ITO composite photocatalytic films were
investigated by X-Ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. In
addition, photocatalytic properties of synthesized materials were evaluated by degradation rates of
Rhodamine-B aqueous solutions under UV light irradiation. The SEM results indicated that, with an
increasing concentration of Sn dopant in Zn1?xSnxO NRs/ITO, the effective surface areas were
declined by an exponential decay function and the reduction was negligible as the Sn doping
concentration was higher than 3%. With the similarity in effective surface area, the contribution of Sn
in the enhancement of the photocatalytic activity of Zn0.93Sn0.07O NRs/ITO is clearly observed with
41% improvement in comparison to ZnO NRs/ITO.
