摘要
Zinc sulfide thin films are deposited on glass substrates using thermal evaporation technique. Effect of thickness on the properties of as-deposited ZnS films is studied. ZnS films exhibited cubic structure with preferential orientation along (111) plane. All the films exhibited n-type conductivity with resistivity ranging in the order of 10(5) to 10(6) Omega-cm. The transmittance in the visible region is in the range of 80 to 89% and the band gap of the material varied from 3.65 to 3.52 eV. The as-deposited films can be used as window layer for fabrication of hetero-junction solar cell.
