Abstract

Tin oxide thin film was obtained by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis technique on a glass substrate using different precursors (SnCl₄, SnCl₂, SnCl₂×2H₂O). Tin oxide layers were characterised by optical spectroscopy (UV-VIS), photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) technique. Different precursors used in solution preparation led to differences in morphology, conductivity and growth rate of the tin oxide films.
