Spin coating technique used to prepare ZnPc, CdS and ZnPc/CdS blend thin films, these films annealed at 423K for 1h, 2h and 3h. Optical behavior of these films were examined using UV-Vis. and PL. The absorption spectrum of ZnPc shows a decreasing in absorption with the increase of annealing time while CdS spectrum give a clearly absorption peak at~510 nm. Energy gap of ZnPc increases from 1.41 to 1.52 eV by increasing the annealing time. Eg of CdS decrease by increasing annealing time, from 2.3 eV to 2.2 eV. The intensities of the peaks obtained from PL spectra were strongly dependent on annealing time and confirmed the results obtained from UV-Vis. D.C. conductivity measurement showed that all the thin films have two different activation energies in the temperature range 303–473K.

Thin films of TiO2have been deposited on to cleaned glass substrate by sol gel spin coating method. The XRD analyses confirm different crystalline phases of TiO2thin films. The grain size calculated by the help of Scherer’s formula and found to be 23nm, 37nm and 54 nm respectively for TiO2(004), TiO2(200) and TiO2(211) orientations. The band gap was calculated 3.6 eV by UV-spectrophotometer. The refractive index of the TiO2film was measured by Ellipsometry and found to be 2.33. Conductivity was measured using Current voltage (I-V) characteristics. To determine composition and thermal stability, thermo gravimetric Analyzer (TGA) and Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC) analysis was made on samples.

Binary semiconductor CdSe and CdS thin films are widely used for optoelectronic devices and window materials. The formation of ternary CdSe1-xSx thin films improves the physical characteristics of the binary CdSe thin films. The importance of CdSe1-xSx thin film is the change of band gap when incorporating S into the CdSe. This change in energy gap recommends CdSe1-xSx thin film for photovoltaic and photoconductive cells applications. In this work, polycrystalline CdSe1-xSx thin films have been grown in terms of thermal evaporation technique. X-ray diffractometry has been used to determine the lattice parameters and the crystallite size of the CdSe1-xSx mixed crystals. The variation in lattice parameters with composition from x = 0 to x = 1 were linearly. The crystallite size varies parabolically with the change in composition. The energy gap, opt g E , values of CdSe1-xSx thin films were estimated in terms of first derivative of absorbance with respect to wavelength and found to be increased with the formation of the ternary compound Cd-Se-S and with increasing the S content as expense of Se. This wider energy gap of the prepared films, which permits extra light to reach the solar cell junction, was correlated with the change in the microstructure parameters of thin films.

In this exploration Poly lactic corrosive (PLA) was orchestrated the ring-opening polymerization Poly lactic corrosive (PLA) blended with poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) which prepared by solution. Blends thin films Synthesis by spin coating technique and using Tetrahydrofuran (THF) as solvent. PLA powder was 'characterized by' 'X-ray' 'diffraction', '(FT-IR)'. pure Optical properties (PLA), (PLA)/P3HT blends thin films with different percentage of P3HT (0, 1, 2, and 3) wt% were investigated using UV-VS spectroscopy The results showed that the absorption, absorption coefficient, extinction coefficient and conductivity increase with increasing the rate of deformation P3HT, The energy gap decreases with increasing deformation.

AbstractIn our investigation, V doped SiO2/TiO2 thin films were prepared on glass substrates by dip coating sol-gel technique. Chemical composition of the samples was studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Transmittance of the samples was characterized using UV-VIS spectrophotometry. Subsequently band-gap energy (Eg) was estimated for these films. Powders obtained from sols were characterized by FTIR spectroscopy. It was found that vanadium decreases optical band gap of SSiO2/TiO2 films.

ABSTRACTOne-dimensional hybrid Distributed Bragg Reflector (DBR) is constructed using Tris (8-hydroxy) quinoline aluminum (Alq3) molecules and Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles via spin coating process. Light emission from thin films of low molecular weight organic semiconductor of Alq3 is dominated by excitons. This material has been widely used as a superior emitter for organic light emitting diodes. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is an inorganic semiconductor with a high band gap. Photoluminescence (PL) of thin films of Alq3 showed a broad PL peak at 530 nm. In DBR structures, PL quenching is observed but there is no shift in the PL peak of the Alq3. The PL quenching is tentatively attributed to energy transfer via sensitization to wide band gap TiO2 layers. A simple excitonic model is suggested to explain the observation. Fabrication process and optical properties of the structure are presented.
