Chemical Bath Deposition of PbS:Hg2+ Nanocrystalline Thin Films
Nanocrystalline PbS thin films were prepared by Chemical Bath Deposition (CBD) at 40 ± 2°C onto glass substrates and their structural and optical properties modified by in-situ doping with Hg. The morphological changes of the layers were analyzed using SEM and the X-rays spectra showing growth on th...
