Abstract

The effect of iron-doping on lead sulphide (PbS) thin films deposited on glass substrates via successive ionic layer adsorption (SILAR) Technique using lead acetate, Pb(CH3COO)2, thioacetamide (S2H5NS), Iron (II) Chloride dehydrate (FeCl2. 2H2O), ethanol and ammonia in alkaline medium annealed between 283K and 500K was investigated. The structural and morphological studies were performed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) Analysis and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) respectively. The XRD showed that PbS thin films were cubic and face-centred crystalline
