Show affiliationsFlat-surfaced, rod-like materials were obtained by synthesizing long one-dimensional SnO2 structures using a new spray pyrolysis method. The structure and growing mechanisms were evaluated by using scanning and transmission electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. Molecular simulation tools and high resolution transmission electron microscopy images allowed the analysis of a dynamic behaviour for energy release which determines how the structures are formed by searching for an axial energy release direction.
