In the present investigation, low cost and effective CBD method was used to deposit the CdO nanostructured thin films on glass substrate. This thin films were characterized by the XRD, FTIR,UV-Vis Spectroscopy, FESEM, EDAX and AFM analysis. The thickness of CdO thin film was reported 182 nm. The X-ray diffraction patterns revealed that, the CdO film has nano-crystalline in nature having face centered cubic structure and highly oriented along (111) plane. The average crystallite size was 82.93 nm. The direct band gap energy of the film was 2.2 eV .The Field Emission scanning electron micrograph images of films shows that there was uniform distribution of CdO nanoparticles deposited onto entire glass substrate. Further EDAX analysis confirms elemental composition of Cd and O on the surface of substrate and the surface topography was determined by the AFM.
