Popis: Using a rather simple chemical vapor deposition apparatus, transparent conducting tin oxide films were fabricated through the decomposition of SnCl 4 ·5H 2 O. The films showed good electrical properties but high chlorine contamination. We have found that the chlorine can be removed by annealing at 500 K in a hydrogen ambient. This has been established by Auger electron spectroscopy and Rutherford backscattering spectrometry.
