Cubic π‐phase monochalcogenides (MX, M= Sn, Ge; X= S, Se) are an emerging new class
of materials that has recently been discovered. Here, their thermodynamic stability, progress …

This paper reports the thickness dependent structural, optical and electrical properties of tin
monosulfide (SnS) films. SnS films of different thickness were grown (at 24° C) by chemical …

In this paper, the structural, surface morphology and optical properties of Fe-doped cubic tin
sulfide (π-SnS) films are reported. The Fe-doped (0.0–10.0 by wt.% Fe in SnS) π-SnS films …

We report the synthesis of π-SnS thin films using a pneumatic chemical spray pyrolysis
technique. The substrate temperature was varied in the range 300–400° C to optimise the …

In this paper, we report the effect of various Se-dopant concentrations on the structural,
morphological, optical, electrical, and electrochemical properties of ZnS thin films. Undoped …

Thin films suffer from insufficient strength and cannot be made self-holding. Hence, more
convenient fabrication process onto proper holding substrate material is needed to achieve …

Thin films of SnS-CUB with a lattice constant of 11.6 Å, 32 units of SnS per cell and an
optical bandgap (E g) of 1.7 eV (direct), are mostly produced by chemical techniques. This …

The cubic-tin sulfide (SnS) compound material is optimal for the absorber layer in
photovoltaic technology. In this study, the role of annealing temperature on the physical …

Tin monosulfide, SnS, absorbs visible light and holds promise for thin-film photovoltaics.
However, the optoelectronic properties of this material vary among the different structural …
