Abstracts

Cadmium oxide (CdO) thin films were formed by chemical spray pyrolysis technique for different substrate type (glass, quartz, ITO). Absorption spectra were recorded from UV-Visible spectrophotometer in the range of 300-900 nm. The absorbance increased when the glass substrate replaced to quartz or ITO substrate, also this behavior for absorption coefficient and extinction coefficient. While the refractive index tack unstable behavior. The energy gap decreased from 2.4 eV for CdO thin film deposited on glass substrate to 2.36 eV for CdO thin film deposited on ITO substrate
