Firstly, the thermoelectric performance was optimized by controlling the thickness of the SnO\n \n x<\/jats:italic>\n <\/jats:sub>\n film from 60 up to 160 nm. A high Seebeck coefficient of +263\n \u03bc<\/jats:italic>\n V K\n \u22121<\/jats:sup>\n and electrical conductivity of 4.1\u00a0\u00d7\u00a010\n 2<\/jats:sup>\n (S m\n \u22121<\/jats:sup>\n ) were achieved in a 60 nm thick SnO\n \n x<\/jats:italic>\n <\/jats:sub>\n film, due to a compact nanostructured film and the absence of the Sn metallic phase, which was observed for the thicker SnO\n \n x<\/jats:italic>\n <\/jats:sub>\n film leading to a typical thermoelectric transport properties of a n-type Sn film. Moreover, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy revealed the co-existence of SnO (79.7%) and SnO\n 2<\/jats:sub>\n (20.3%) phases in the 60 nm thick SnO\n \n x<\/jats:sub>\n <\/jats:italic>\n film, while the optical measurements revealed an indirect gap of 1.8 eV and a direct gap of 2.7 eV, respectively. The 60 nm-SnO\n \n x<\/jats:italic>\n <\/jats:sub>\n thin film have been tested as a thermoelectric touch sensor, achieving a\n \n V\n signal<\/jats:sub>\n <\/jats:italic>\n \/\n \n V\n noise<\/jats:sub>\n <\/jats:italic>\n \u00a0\u2248\u00a020, with a rise time <1 s.
