The optical properties of as prepared and annealed [(Cu5Se75Ge10In10)99 (CNT)1] thin films deposited with thermal evaporation technique has been discussed as a function of photon energy in wavelength range 300–900 nm in present paper. The bulk sample of as prepared glassy alloys were developed using the melt quench technique. Thin films of prepared glassy alloys were deposited on a glass substrate with thermal evaporation unit at room temperature at base pressure of ∼10–5 Pa. The films were annealed at two different temperatures between glass transition temperature and crystallization temperatures. Analysis of the optical data shows that optical bandgap decreases with increasing annealing temperature while extinction coefficient, absorption coefficient and transmission shows increasing behaviour with increase in annealing temperature.

Tin Oxide and Indium doped Tin Oxide (SnO2:In) thin films were deposited on glass and Silicon  substrates  by  thermal evaporation technique.  X-ray diffraction pattern of  pure SnO2 and SnO2:In thin films annealed at 650oC and the results showed  that the structure have tetragonal phase with preferred orientation in (110) plane. AFM studies showed an inhibition of grain growth with increase in indium concentration. SEM studies of pure  SnO2 and  Indium doped tin oxide (SnO2:In) ) thin films showed that the films with regular distribution of particles and they have spherical shape.  Optical properties such as  Transmission , optical band-gap have been measured and calculated.

Bismuth telluride-based compounds are known to be the best thermoelectric materials within room temperature region, which exhibit potential applications in cooler or power generation. In this paper, thermal evaporation processes were adopted to fabricate the n-type Bi2Te3thin films on SiO2/Si substrates. The influence of thermal annealing on the microstructures and thermoelectric properties of Bi2Te3thin films was investigated in temperature range 100–250°C. The crystalline structures and morphologies were characterized by X-ray diffraction and field emission scanning electron microscope analyses. The Seebeck coefficients, electrical conductivity, and power factor were measured at room temperature. The experimental results showed that both the Seebeck coefficient and power factor were enhanced as the annealing temperature increased. When the annealing temperature increased to 250°C for 30 min, the Seebeck coefficient and power factor of n-type Bi2Te3-based thin films were found to be about −132.02 μV/K and 6.05 μW/cm·K2, respectively.

Bilayer thin films of Ge/CdS have been deposited on a glass substrate through thermal evaporation method. The obtained Ge/CdS samples were annealed at temperatures up to 400°C to observe the resulting effect on the structural changes in the film. The bandgap of the annealed films was found to increase with increasing annealing temperature which can be attributed to the increased interlayer diffusion. The interlayer diffusion was found to take effect above a temperature of 300°C which was confirmed by the Rutherford backscattering technique. Complementary XPS was done to investigate the surface stoichiometry of the bilayers.

CdS thin films were prepared by thermal evaporation onto glass substrate in vacuum better than 5.5x10-5 mbar. The obtained films were subsequently annealed in a pure nitrogen atmosphere at temperature between 100 to 500°C for 30 min. The crystal structure and surface morphology of the as-deposited and annealed films were investigated by XRD and SEM, respectively. Optical band gap and Urbach tail values of the films, determined from spectral transmission data, were found to be slightly varied in the range 2.36-2.40 eV and 110-160 meV, respectively, due to annealing temperature. The refractive index of the films was also evaluated from the spectral transmission data. The dependence of the refractive index on the wavelength obeys the single oscillator model, from which the important parameters such as refractive index, extinction coefficient, oscillator energy (E0) and dispersion energy (Ed) of the films with different annealing temperatures were determined. From the experimental results, the optical parameters of the films are obviously influenced by annealing temperature.
