We studied the effect of an external magnetic field (up to 0.31 T) on the growth of SnO2 nanowires fabricated using the horizontal vapor phase growth (HPVG) technique. The morphology of the nanowires was characterized by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the chemical composition was char...
