<p>Abstract</p> <p>We report the characterization of mixed oxides nanocomposite nanofibers of (1 − <it>x</it>) ZnO-(<it>x</it>)SnO<sub>2</sub> (<it>x</it> ≤ 0.45) synthesized by electrospinning technique. The diameter of calcined nanofibers depends on Sn content. Other phases like SnO, ZnSnO<sub>3</sub>, and Zn<sub>2</sub>SnO<sub>4</sub> were absent. Photoluminescence studies show that there is a change in the blue/violet luminescence confirming the presence of Sn in Zn-rich composition.
