Abstract:Tin sulfide thin films on soda-lime glass substrate were prepared by co-evaporation. This technique uses a vapor phase procedure involving chemical reactions between the precursor species evaporated simultaneously. The influence of the substrate temperature in the crystal structure and chemical composition were determined by X-ray diffraction and energy dispersive analysis of X-rays, showing that thin films crystallized in SnS, SnS2, and Sn2S3 phases. Scanning electron microscope shows thin films with homogenous and uniform surface. Some of the samples were annealed to study the variation of structural, chemical, and optical properties. The variation of refractive index (n), extinction coefficient (k), and dielectric constant (ε) with wavelength and photon energy are reported. The energy band gap was calculated from optical transmittance and reflectance measurements in the range 300–1500 nm. The calculated energy band gap values were between 1.75 and 2.3 eV, depending on the phase in which crystallized the different thin films.
