Growth, Electrical, and Optical Study of ZnS:Mn Thin Films

In this study, ZnS and Mn-incorporated (at 2%, 4%, and 6%) ZnS films were deposited onto glass substrates by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis technique, and the effect of Mn incorporation on the electrical and optical properties of ZnS films was investigated. In order to determine the electrical characterization, the resistivity measurements of the films were performed by four-probe technique. The optical studies such as transmittance, reflectance and band gap energies of the films were carried out by the UV-Vis transmission.
