In this research, dysprosium stannate nanostructures produced through a novel simple sol-gel approach. The role of some production parameters was examined to achieve optimum condition. Outcomes of this research reveal that morphology and size of the dysprosium stannate could be largely influenced by these parameters. The as-produced dysprosium stannate nanostructures were characterized by FT-IR, FESEM, EDS and XRD. From the obtained outcomes, it was found that with the help of this new approach may be produced homogeneous spherical nanostructured dysprosium stannate. The photocatalyst performance of as-produced dysprosium stannate was also surveyed by decomposition of the organic pollutant under visible light irradiation.
