Photothermal deflection spectroscopy (PDS) is carried out in order to investigate thermal and optical properties of Al doped In2S3. The influence of thermal annealing on its gap energy as well as its thermal properties is revealed. In this way, we notice that thermal conductivity is increased and the gap energy is reduced. These features are probably due to the improvement of the crystalline structure of the sample.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
