Abstract
This chapter emphasizes the basics and synthesis of nanostructured thin films using different techniques. The properties that were specific to the material turn out to be size dependent in nanoscale. Thus, the structural, electrical, optical, and morphological characteristics of the sample show different behavior that can be highly tuned for the device-oriented properties depending upon the growth mechanism involved. In this chapter, we will deal more with such changes regarding the samples grown in thin film form. Fundamentals behind the various vacuum and wet chemical techniques for the nanothin film synthesis are discussed. This chapter also covers the substrate selection as well as the importance of tuning the synthesis procedures for device-oriented applications. The essential optical characterization details have been briefed out at the end to determine the band structure of semiconductor thin film samples.
