title: Assembly of antimony doped tin oxide nanocrystals into conducting macroscopic aerogel monoliths.
abstract: We present the assembly of preformed antimony doped tin oxide nanobuilding blocks into centimeter sized aerogels with surface areas exceeding 340 m(2) g(-1). After calcination, the resistivity of the aerogels was decreased by 4 orders of magnitude to a few kΩ cm, with the primary conducting structures measuring only a few nanometers.
