    A chemical spray pyrolysis method was used to synthesize Sr-doped ZnO (SZO) thin films on glass substrates. The atomic percentages of dopants in the spray solution were [Sr/Zn] = 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8%. The structural properties of the prepared thin films are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD). Both undoped and Sr-doped film show strong preferred c-axis orientation. The unit, a minimum value of the volume cells was obtained at 2% doping level. The texture coefficient (TC) of the film along (002) direction the coefficient changes with the doping level due to Sr incorporation. The antibacterial activity against S. aureus is significantly influenced by the strontium incorporation
