A SnO/SnO 2 p–n junction diode is fabricated using a room‐temperature sputtering process. The p–n diode shows an ideality factor of ≈3 and rectification ratio of ≈10 3 . A large temperature‐dependent knee voltage shift is observed (−20 mV °C −1 ) for the diode, indicating its potential in transparent temperature sensing applications.
