In this study, Tin Oxide (SnO 2 ) inverse opal was fabricated by infiltrating SnO 2 sol-gel precursor solution into Poly Styrene (PS) spheres crystal template which was generated via evaporative deposition self-assembling, then was heat treating at 500℃ for two hours in controlled atmosphere box furnaces. PS spheres crystal template was characterized by Scanning electron microscope and Ultraviolet-visible-near infrared absorption spectrometer. The SnO 2 inverse opal was characterized by
