“…However, the practical use of Cd 2 SnO 4 thin films requires a cost-effective preparation method and relatively low cost precursors with the potential to produce thin films with improved physical properties. In this respect, the inexpensive spray pyrolysis method was effectively employed by early workers for producing highly transparent and conductive thin films [27][28][29][30]. Hence in this work we report on the preparation of Indoped Cd 2 SnO 4 thin films for the first time employing the spray pyrolysis method and the effects of In-doping on the structural, electrical and optical properties of Cd 2 SnO 4 films.…”
