Abstract. Results of surface morphology and optical density investigations and the
photoluminescence phenomenon were obtained for SnO 2 thin films. Films having
nanosize of their grains ~ 10-15 nm were obtained using polymeric materials. Evaluation
of a dimensional quantization is fulfilled by two methods: analytically using AFM data,
and by means of optical density spectra; results obtained by these two methods are in a
good agreement.
Keywords: tin dioxide, surface morphology, optical properties.
