Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The influence of treatment in hydrogen and oxygen glow discharge plasmas on the structural and optical properties of 270- to 350-nm-thick SnO x films prepared using magnetron sputtering and the sol-gel method on the glass substrate has been considered. It has been demonstrated that the plasmas exert segregating and destroying effects on the structure of crystal grains, the transparency of films, and on their porosity. It has been established that treatment in the hydrogen glow discharge plasma makes it possible in principle to prepare crystal-amorphous nanostructures in which tin oxide nanocrystals of high quality alternate with tin oxide clusters.
