Sn-doped hematite (α-Fe2O3) nanoparticles of fairly uniform and Sn-dependent size and shape were synthesized via a simple combination of hydrothermal co-precipitation and calcination. The effects of Sn doping on the unit cell size, crystallinity, particle size and shape, as well as the magnetic, optical and photocatalytic properties of hematite nanoparticles were analyzed. The incorporation of Sn4+ ions into the crystal structure of hematite was confirmed by determination of the unit cell expansion due to the replacement of octahedrally coordinated Fe3+ ions by significantly larger Sn4+ ions, as well as a substantially reduced hyperfine magnetic field due to magnetic dilution upon the substitution of non-magnetic Sn4+ ions for magnetic high-spin Fe3+ ions. Sn doping caused a decrease in length and width and an increase in thickness of elongated hematite nanoparticles. Fairly uniform Sn-doped hematite nanoellipsoids or nanocuboids were formed, depending on the Sn content. Temperature de...pendence of magnetization measurements showed the disappearance of the magnetic phase transition (Morin transition) in hematite upon Sn doping. Magnetic coercivity decreased upon Sn doping due to a decrease in shape anisotropy induced by the change in particle shape from nanorods to nanoellipsoids and nanocuboids. The optical and electronic properties of hematite nanoparticles were significantly affected by Sn doping – the absorption edge was shifted to higher wavelengths, while direct and indirect optical band gaps narrowed with the increasing Sn4+-for-Fe3+ substitution. Sn-doped hematite nanoellipsoids containing 4.3 mol% Sn exhibited a substantial visible light photocatalytic activity in the heterogeneous photo-Fenton process, but this activity significantly decreased with higher Sn doping.
