“…Maximal widening (0.19 eV) is achieved as Sm content equals 0.75 at.%. This widening is larger than the reported 0.018 eV and 0.04 eV resulted from Al doping of 2-3 at.% [20,21] and near 0.21 eV due to Er dopings of 0.6 at.% [19]. The band gap widening with respect to the pure ZnO film may be the well-known Moss-Burstein shift [13][14][15][16]19].…”

A series of ZnO: Sm films with Sm content of 0-1.0 at.% were deposited by a chemical solution deposition. The deposited films were characterized by X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, UVVis and luminescent spectrophotometry, and electrical resistance measurement. The experiments revealed that the Sm doping first increased and then decreased the optical transmittance, band gap, and n-type conductivity with increasing Sm content. The film with the Sm content of 0.75 at.% showed optimal optical and electrical properties. The maximal band gap widening was about 0.19 eV. The resistance decrease of *20 times was observed. The photoluminescence measurement indicated that the films showed a strong near band gap emission and a blue-green emission related to intrinsic defect. The refractive index, extinction coefficient, and dielectric constant of the films were calculated with the transmittance and reflectance spectra.

“…The absorbance decreases with the increase in deposition time period of the films, which leads to increase in the thickness of deposited films. The decrease in absorption with thickness can be explained in another way, where in this case of a thicker films, more atoms are present in the films so more states will be available for the photons to be absorbed [9][10][11]. When the deposition time period increases absorbance found to be decreased.…”

“…CuS thin films have been prepared by various techniques including electro deposition [3], successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) [4,5], spray pyrolysis [6], photochemical deposition [7] and chemical bath deposition (CBD) [8][9][10]. Among these techniques CBD is a promising technique because it is simple, safe, has low deposition temperature, inexpensive and environmental friendly method.…”
