Tin Oxide Conductive Glass - Stannous Chloride

Jeri reproduces the Terra Labs transparent conductive glass experiments with stannous chloride. The stannous chloride decomposes to tin oxide on the glass when heated.

@vmelkon Its a semicunductive chrystal but with either one or two oxigen (SnO or SnO2) shuld reduce conductivity , anyway toothpaste has SnF2 ( tin fluride) my english is not good, but chemistry is ok. try other metals or if you want the glass transparent use cunductive plastic paint. Its expensive but easy to make. Good luck. Silver nitrate is best.

tin oxide is conductive?

Thanks for the video, I've been searching all throughout the internet for information on Transparent Conductive Glass for my dye sesitized solar cell project, aka. Gratzel cell. I wonder if its possible to add a dope of Flourine to the Stannous Chloride to increase the conductivity of the film layer, and in what form should it be? Thanks again...

Thank you for the video. What would happen if you put the stannous chloride in the middle of the glass instead of the end?

this is nice, thanks for uploading!
