Abstract
Sb doped tin oxide transparent conducting powder were prepared by solid state reaction method. Structural properties of the samples were investigated as a function of various Sb-doping levels (x=0.00-0.01-0.02-0.04-0.06). The results of x-ray diffraction have shown that the samples are polycrystalline structure in tetragonal phase with preferential orientations along the (110) and (101) planes.the relative intensities, distance between crystalline planes (d), crystallite size (D), dislocation density (ẟ) and lattice parameters (a), (c) were determined. Infrared Spectroscopy have been studied by Infrared Spectrometer Device. Keywords : powder, Antimony doped Tin Oxide, solid state reaction, Structural properties, Infrared Spectroscopy.

Summary
Nano-crystals of semiconductor metal oxides have attracted a great interest due to their intriguing properties, which are different from those of their corresponding bulk state [1]. Because of its unique electronic, optical, electrochemical and catalytical properties, it has been widely used in flat panel displays, transparent conducting electrodes , solar cells , gas sensors and rechargeable Li – ion batteries , etc [4]. It crystallizes in the tetragonal rutile structure with space group P42/mnm . The tin atom is at the center of six oxygen atoms placed at the corners of a regular octahedron. Every oxygen atom is surrounded by three tin atoms at the corners of an equilateral triangle [6]
