Abstract
Semiconducting Sb2S3 thin films have been prepared on glass substrates by spray pyrolysis. The films were deposited at optimised conditions of substrate temperature and solution concentration and have been char acterised for their structural, optical and electrical properties. The films are semiconducting and amorphous. From the optical absorption s tudy, the (indirect) bandgap is estimated to be 1.55 eV.
