Abstract

Effect of co-doping on optical and electrical properties of $SnO_2$ based thin films were studied. $SnO_2$ ceramic targets with up to 50mol% $CuSb_2O_6$ were prepared by sintering mixed-oxide compact in the temperature range of $1100^{\circ}C{\sim}1300^{\circ}C$ in air. Thin films were then deposited onto glass substrates by pulsed laser deposition where substrate temperature was maintained in the range of $500{\sim}650^{\circ}C$ with oxygen pressure of 3m~7.5mTorr and energy density of $1Jcm^{-2}$. It was found that with the increase amount of dopant, the electrical properties of thin films tended to improve with the smallest resistivity value obtained at about 8mol% doping, further increase, however, usually impaired the optical transmission in the visible range.
