Hollow NiO–SnO2nanospheres have been fabricated via a simple one-pot template-free method. The synthesis is based on solvothermal treatment of stannate and nickel nitrate as the precursor in a mixed solvent of heptane–ethanol. The hollow nanospheres show diameters of about 200–300nm with the wall thickness of about 50nm, and the shell consists of numerous small nanoparticles. The gas sensor based on hollow NiO–SnO2nanospheres exhibits high response and quick response–recovery to NH3, which are much better compared with sensors based on solid NiO–SnO2nanospheres. The enhanced sensor performances are attributed to the larger surface area and fast gas diffusion.
