    Notes: Abstract In the sol-gel technology, either for bulk or thin films, the stability in time of the solutions is a major factor to control. An evolution of the solution may influence strongly the properties of the elaborated material (thickness, cracks, refractive index, conductivity, etc.), and cases have been reported where solutions had to be stored in a dry and cold place to prevent any hydrolysis-condensation reaction, and so any consequent gelation. This paper evaluates the influence of the solution aging on the properties of undoped SnO2 layers obtained by sol-gel dip-coating (SGDC). Results are given in relation with storage conditions and for experiences conducted over several months. The evolution of the solution viscosity is first followed, and the corresponding properties for the layers are presented: optical reflection and transmission, optical gap, conductivity, morphology... The importance of the interaction with water is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract The influence of elaboration parameters during the sol-gel process is studied for tin oxide films deposition. The Dip Coating Sol-Gel route can be divided into three elaboration stages: the pulling phase and the drying and densification steps. During the pulling phase, the relative humidity ratio and the withdrawal speed are found to influence the film morphology and the film thickness respectively. Then, we show how a correct control of the sample drying is able to eliminate cracks. The densification step (temperature and duration), leading to the final network, is considered in details, and resulting effects on physical properties are presented: crytallinity, optical behaviour, atomic density, stoichiometry, electrical conductivity etc... We show through these results the specificity of the tin oxide elaborated with our procedure

    Notes: Abstract The antimony doping in SnO2 thin films prepared by the sol-gel dip-coating method has been studied using two characterization techniques. In order to determine the actual doping level directly in the deposited layers, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) have been used. We found that this doping level is systematically lower than expected from the starting solutions composition, and that two oxidation states are present: Sb3+ and Sb5+. As the antimony content increases, there is a competition between Sb5+ and Sb3+ species. The SnO2: Sb thin films have also been observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), showing that the measured mean size of crystallites decreases as the Sb content increases in the oxide. No precipitates of either Sn or Sb oxides (other than SnO2) could be detected.
