Synthesis of MnS2 Thin Films by Chemical Route: Physicochemical Properties
Keywords:
DMS, chemical route, X-ray diffraction, Scanning,Electron Microscopy (SEM).Abstract
In present work, manganese sulfide (MnS2) thin films have been deposited by chemical route at room temperature on commercial glass substrate. Employed chemical method is inexpensive, simple and does not require any sophisticated instrument for deposition. The chemical bath is prepared from the mixture as solutions of manganese acetate tetrahydrate [C4H6MnO44H2O] as a manganese source, thiourea [(H2 N) 2 CS] as a sulfur source and ammonia solution used as a complexing agent, respectively. The structural and morphological analysis has been investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM).
