AbstractThin films of tin sulfide (SnS) were deposited on TCO-coated glass substrates by pulse electrodeposition. Cyclic voltammetry showed that SnS deposition occurs in the -0.8 V to −1 V range. The films deposited using the potential pulses of -0.95V (Von) and +0.1V (Voff) are of orthorhombic crystal structure with lattice parameters and grain size similar to those of the thin films of orthorhombic structure obtained by chemical deposition. The optical band gap of the films was 1.3 eV. In CdS/SnS heterojunctions an open circuit voltage110 mV, short circuit current density 0.72 mA/cm2 and fill factor of 0.32 are reported here.

In this study report the structural and optical properties of Copper Tin Sulfide (Cu2SnS3) thin films on indium tin oxide (ITO) substrate using co-evaporation technique. High purity of copper, tin and sulfur were taken as source materials to deposit Cu2SnS3 (CTS) thin films at different substrate temperatures (200-350 °C). Further, the effect of different substrate temperature on the crystallographic, morphological and optical properties of CTS thin films was investigated. The deposited CTS thin films shows tetragonal phase with preferential orientation along (112) plane confirmed by X-ray diffraction. Micro-Raman studies reveled the formation of CTS thin films. The surface morphology, average grain size and rms values of the deposited films are examined by Scanning electron spectroscopy (SEM) and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). The Energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) shows the presence of copper, tin and sulfur with a nearly stoichiometric ratio. The optical band gap (1.76-1.63 eV) and absorption coefficient (~105 cm-1) of the films was calculated by using UV-Vis-NIR spectroscopy. The values of refractive index, extinction coefficient and permittivity of the deposited films were calculated from the optical transmittance data.
