Abstract

In this study, chemical bath deposition method was used to grow Zinc sulfide(ZnS) thin filmsfrom NH3/SC(NH2)2/ZnSO4 solutions at 90℃. ZnS thin films have been prepared onto ITO glass. Theconcentrations of ZnSO4 and NH were varied while the concentration of Thiourea was fixed in 0.52 M. Structural, optical, electrical characteristic of ZnS thin films were measured. The physical and opticalproperties of different ZnS thin films were influenced severely by the concentration of the two reactingchemicals. The optimal concentration of ZnSO4 and NH3 was 0.085 M and 1.6 M, respectively.
