Abstract
Tin oxide films were deposited on silicon substrates at room temperature using the radio frequency(RF) magnetron sputtering with different sputtering power.The influence of sputtering power upon the crystal structure,surface morphology and electrochemical properties of tin oxide films were then investigated.The XRD and SEM results illustrate that the phase of tin oxide thin films changed from amorphous to crystalline and the grain size augments with the increase of the sputtering power.The constant current charge and discharge cycle tests imply that the initial irreversible capacity loss of Li/tin oxide batteries increase and which capacity decrease as the sputtering power increases.The sputtering power has a great influence upon the structural and electrochemical properties of tin oxide films.
