Abstract
This research work has given an overview on the preparation of zinc sulphide thin films on different types of substrates (quartz, soda lime glass, silicon, polyethylene terephthalate film, fluorine-doped tin oxide glass, indium tin oxide coated glass, silica, stainless steel, mica, microscopy glass slide and (100) GaAs substrate) using different types of deposition methods. XRD data showed information about the different phases (cubic, wurtzite and hexagonal) presented in the obtained as-deposited films and annealed samples. Based on optical studies, the band gap was observed in the range of 2.6 eV to 3.87 eV with good absorption coefficient value (105 to 106 cm-1). Experimental results indicated these films could be used in solar cell applications, anti-reflection coating, photocatalysts, photo detector devices and laser-oriented coating applications.
