CdO:Li films were deposited on glass substrates by using spray pyrolysis. The 0.02 mol precursor solution was obtained by varying the concentrations of cadmium acetate and lithium chloride in twice-distilled water and was then sprayed on a heated glass substrate. The structural, optical and electrical properties of the CdO:Li films were studied using X-ray diffractometry, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, UV-VIS-NIR spectrophotometry and Hall-effect experiments. The CdO:Li films prepared with Li concentrations up to 10.0 at.% were identified as Li- doped CdO(CdO:Li) with (111) and (200) preferred orientations and a cubic structure. The optical transmissions of the CdO:Li films were about 60 ∼ 80% in the wavelength range from 500 nm to 900 nm and decreased with increasing Li concentration. The optical energy band gaps of the CdO:Li films increased with increasing Li concentration. The electric resistivity, carrier concentration, mobility and Hall coefficient of the p-type CdO:Li films deposited with a Li concentration of 8.0 at.%
were 1.3933 × 10
