Amorphous thin films of Se80Te(20–X)SbX (X = 0, 4, 8, and 10 at. %) were deposited onto clean quartz substrates by vapour deposition (thermal evaporation) under a vacuum of 10−5 Torr. The transmission spectra at normal incidence in the spectral range of 250–2500 nm were measured at room temperature. The optical energy gap Eg was found to be indirect. The value of Eg was found to decrease from 1.69 to 1.43 eV with increasing Sb content. The composition dependence of the optical energy gap is discussed in terms of the chemical bond approach. The band tail width of localized states Ee was found to increase from 0.0297 to 0.0551 eV with increasing Sb content.

PbxCd1-xSe compound with different Pb percentage (i.e. X=0,0.025, 0.050, 0.075, and 0.1) were prepared successfully. Thin filmswere deposited by thermal evaporation on glass substrates at filmthickness (126) nm. The optical measurements indicated thatPbxCd1-xSe films have direct optical energy gap. The value of theenergy gap decreases with the increase of Pb content from 1.78 eV to1.49 eV.

In the present work, undoped CdS and doped with iron CdS:Fe+3 thin films have been prepared by chemical spray pyrolysis method on glass substrate with different temperature from cadmium nitrate solution with constant thickness(450 ± 5 nm), and study the effect of the percentage of doping with iron on optical properties of prepared films. The optical properties have been studied from transmittance and absorbance spectral within wavelengths range (380-900 nm). The results showed that all the prepared films has direct electronic transitions and optical energy gap between (2.31-2.44 eV). They also showed that the transmittance and optical energy gap of films prepared from nitrate solution increase with increasing of substrate temperature, then transmittance start downward with the continued increase in temperature (400, 450 oC), and a decrease in the optical energy gap with increasing doping percentage with iron.

Thin films of nanostructured SnO2 with different molariteswere prepared by chemical spray pyrolysis technique. XRD analysis reveals that all the films were tetragonal polycrystalline with a preferred orientation along (110) plane. AFM measurements indicate that the value of the grain size for 0.05 M, 0.1 M and 0.15 M were 111nm, 78 nm and 58 nm respectively. SEM micrograph proved the existence of small cracks on the film surface, EDS confirmed the composition percentage ratio of Sn and O­2 and no trace of impurities could be detected. PL spectra gives the indication about optical energy gap and the effect of concentration on it which appeared as a blue shift. The transmittance was studied for the deposited thin films, identifying that the transmittance decreases by the increase in molarity. The value of the optical energy gap of the deposited thin films was increased upon increasing molar concentration due o quantum confinement effect. The Urbach energy was also studied, their values decrease as the molar concentration increase.
