摘      要：The physico-chemical properties of cesium doped SnO2 nanocrystals synthesized by wet chemical method have been investigated. Scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, X-ray diffraction （XRD）, energy dispersive X-ray analysis （EDAX）, inductively coupled plasma （ICP）, atomic absorption spectroscopic （AAS） analyses, UV-vis-NIR spectral studies and dielectric studies were carried out for both pure SnO2 and cesium doped SnO2 nano-samples. All samples of SnO2 did not show any metallic cluster, but the sample containing cesium as a dopant displayed significant activity. The products formed were chloride and water representing a competitive advantage from the stand point of environmental protection.
