Abstract

Amorphous SnSe thin films were deposited by thermal evaporation technique on glass substrates kept at room temperature in a vacuum better than 10-5Torr. A detailed study of structural and optical properties of 150 nm thin film was carried out. The selected area diffraction patterns obtained by TEM for this thin film were analyzed by a new method that involves accurate determination of lattice parameters by image processing software. The obtained results are in good agreement with the JCPDS data. Optical transmission spectra obtained at room temperature were analyzed to study optical properties of deposited thin films. It has been found that indirect carrier transition is responsible for optical absorption process in the deposited thin films.
