Abstract
Transparent conducting films of fluorine doped tin oxide were deposite d using spray pyrolysis. The spray solution was tin (II) fluoride in m ethanol with or without addition of acid. Film thickness, growth rates and polycrystal grain size increased with deposition time, substrate temperature and amount of hydrochloric acid added to the deposition so lution. The crystallite orientations in the films depended also on tho se variables as well as on solution concentration.
