F-co-doped Palladium Tin Oxide (PTO) thin films were pyrolytically deposited on glass substrate at 4500C using an alcoholic precursor solution consisting of Tin (IV) Chloride (SnCl4.5H2O), Palladium Chloride (PdCl2) and Ammonium Fluoride (NH4F). A resistivity of 0.3-6.9×10-2?cm was obtained in F-co-doped PTO films prepared with a Pd content of 3.68at% and F content of 0 – 23.96at% under optimized conditions. The optical properties were studied in the UV/VIS/NIR region. The optical bandgap of the films laid in the range 3.945 – 4.014 eV. Using dispersion analysis with Drude and Kim terms, optical constants were determined from spectro-photometric measurements for films on glass.
