Abstract
Tin sulphide films have been deposited onto glass substrates at room temperature by chemical bath deposition using aqueous solution. The structural and vibrational properties of the deposited films have been characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), FT-IR and Raman spectroscopy. XRD data indicate that as grown film is polycrystalline in nature and is composed of predominantly orthorhombic phase. Infrared spectrum of the film has been investigated in 4000–400 cm-1 region. The infrared spectrum of SnS displays several bands. The Raman spectrum studies revealed three peaks (64, 106 and 239 cm-1) of SnS film. The spectrum analysis also shows that there exists a Sn2S3or/and SnS2 phase in the deposited film.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.
  • If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
  • You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
  • You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
