Abstract

A Sb2S3 and CsCl thin films has been prepared using thermal co-evaporation deposition technique. These films were annealed for different temperatures 100oC and 150oC. Absorbance and transmittance spectra were recorded in the wavelength range (300-900) nm. The nature of electronic transition were determined; it was found that this films has been indirect allowed transition with an optical energy gap. The extinction coefficient, refractive index, and energy bandgap was also measured before and after annealing.
