In this paper, the influence of immersion time on the structural and optical properties of SnO2 thin films was investigated. A series of samples was deposited by Sol-Gel dip coating method onto glass substrates. The number of layers was fixed at 03, but the immersion time was varied between 01 to 10 minutes. The samples [(3 layers) - SnO2 / glass] were submitted to thermal treatments in air at 500°C during 2h. The specimens are characterized by Raman spectroscopy and UV-Visible spectroscopy. Raman spectroscopy show that the thin films of SnO2 obtained at 06 and 10 minutes of immersion time, are crystallizes in rutile phase. The obtained results of optical analysis showed that the SnO2 thin films are transparent (77-85%) in the visible region and the values of the optical band gap varied from 3.81eV and 3.86 eV.

Nickel oxide (NiO) thin films were successfully deposited by sol-gel dip-coating method on glass substrates. The structural, morphological and optical properties in addition to the photocatalytic activity of the prepared films were investigated. The results show that the films have a polycrystalline NiO cubic structure with dense NiO grains and average optical transmittance in the visible region. The photocatalytic properties of the films were studied through the degradation of methylene blue and 89% of degradation was achieved for 4.5h of solar light irradiation exposure which indicates the capability of NiO photocatalytic activity.

Abstract Nickel oxide thin films have been prepared by sol-gel dip-coating technique on glass substrate. It is shown that nickel oxide thin films have poly crystalline nature. Nickel oxide thin films exhibit high transmission (39–85%) in the wavelength range of 400–900 nm, strong absorption between 300 and 400 nm wavelengths and decrease of band gap values are in the range 3.69–3.27 eV with increase of withdrawal speed. High band gap at low withdrawal speed is because of the small average crystallite size, which decreases with increase in withdrawal speed. The SEM micrograph shows cubic crystallites and surface of thin films become dense, smooth and homogeneous with an increase in withdrawal speed. Assessment of nickel oxide deposition conditions provides gateway for effective and cheap solar cells.
