Ag-ZnO composite thin films were prepared on glass substrates by chemical bath deposition at lower temperature. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, photoluminescence and the optical transmission spectra. The morphology analysis showed that Ag nanoparticles were not deposited on the ZnO nanorods surface but on the glass substrate. The influence of the reaction time on the size and density of Ag nanoparticles was studied, the results showed that the reaction time played an important role in determining of the optical characteristics. There were two obvious photoluminescence peaks located at about 395 nm and 471 nm, respectively. The blue emission centered at 471 nm can be ascribed to the electron transition from Zn_{i} to V_{Zn}.
