Abstract

The demand for new materials with capacity to generate or store energy is of extreme importance in view of the current energy demands. In this perspective, the present proposal aims at the production of perovskites with the use of stannous oxide nanoparticles, SnO, a p-type semiconductor. The synthesis of SnO nanoparticles will be done by microwave and the preparation, characterization and application of SnO-perovskitas will be developed during the research stage at the Institute of Advanced Materials (INAM), Spain.
