Laser pyrolysis has be employed many times previously as an affordable method to synthesize small size nanoparticles. In this study, we report for the first time the use of laser pyrolysis to create SnO2 nanoparticles and SnO2@rGO nanocomposite via a one-pot synthesis method. SnO2 was used due to it...
