Abstract

The basic processes of self-assembly in sol-gel technologies during the formation of network nanomaterials with a hierarchical structure have been considered. The gas-sensitive fractal structures have been prepared in systems based on dioxides of tin and silicon. The formation of a structure of nanocomposites has been studied using atomic force microscopy and electron microscopy methods. The gas-sensitive properties of nanomaterials have been investigated. A method for diagnosing objects with a hierarchical structure based on metal oxides has been proposed.
