In this work I tried to summarize some electrical properties of CdS thin films prepared by Chemical Bath Deposition (CBD) technique. CBD is very easy and cost effective. I focused on semiconductor type, resistivity and carrier mobility of CdS thin films. There is a good agreement in previous workers for these properties. They agreed that CdS is n type semiconductor and resistivity decreases while carrier mobility increases due to annealing of CdS thin films.

Keywords: Chemical Bath Deposition (CBD) technique, Semiconductor type, Resistivity and Carrier mobility.
