We report calculations of the electronic structure and optical properties of doped n-type perovskite BaSnO₃ and layered perovskites. While doped BaSnO₃ retains its transparency for energies below the valence to conduction band onset, the doped layered compounds exhibit below band edge optical conductivity due to transitions from the lowest conduction band. This gives absorption in the visible for Ba₂SnO₄. It is important to minimize this phase in transparent conducting oxide (TCO) films. Ba₃Sn₂O₇ and Ba₄Sn₃O₁₀ have strong transitions only in the red and infrared, respectively. Thus, there may be opportunities for using these as wavelength filtering TCO.
