Silver-doping in SnS films can improve the semiconducting properties of SnS films. Based on our previous research, SnS:Ag thin films were deposited on ITO coated glass by pulse electro-deposition in order to study their structural, optical and electrical properties. SnS:Ag thin films were characterized with X-ray diffraction (XRD) , Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and some other methods. The primary composition of the films is SnS, but maybe there is a little quantity of SnS2, Ag8SnS6 and other compounds. The doped films exhibit good crystallization with big grain size. They have an optical gap of 1.66~1.89eV and a high absorption coefficient (α>5×104cm-1). Hall measurement has shown that all the samples are of p-type conduction with low resistivity of the order of 10-3Ω•cm, and the carrier concentration increases to 1019cm-3 after Ag-doping. In conclusion, the semiconducting properties of the SnS films have been improved by silver-doping. Thus, SnS:Ag thin films can be used as solar cells absorbers.

Copper-tin-oxide thin films have been prepared on quartz substrates by the magnetron sputtering method. The structural,optical and electrical properties were investigated. The prepared samples were amorphous, CuSnO3 single crystalline grains with perovskite structure were observed after annealing temperature was above 530°C. The optical and electrical properties had great dependence with reactive gas pressure and annealing temperature. Thermal probe reveals p type conductivity of some samples. Keywords: Magnetron sputtering, CuSnO3, Perovskite structure
