SnO 2 nanowalls were synthesized on silicon substrate by the thermal chemical vapor transport method at a low temperature of around 650 °C under atmospheric pressure. The microstructure and morphology of the SnO 2 nanowalls were evaluated by using scanning electron microscopies and X‐ray diffraction. Room temperature photoluminescence spectra of the nanowalls showed a broad emission band centering at about 530 nm. Field emission measurements demonstrated that the nanowalls possessed good performance with a turn‐on field of ∼3.5 V/μm and a threshold field of ∼6.1 V/μm. (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
