摘要
Thin films of tin selenide(Sn_xSe_y) with an atomic ratio of r =[y/x]= 0.5,1 and 1.5 were prepared on a glass substrate at T = 470℃using a spray pyrolysis technique.The initial materials for the preparation of the thin films were an alcoholic solution consisting of tin chloride(SnCl_4·5H_2O) and selenide acide(H_2SeO_3).The prepared thin films were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD),scanning electron microscopy,scanning tunneling microscopy,scanning helium ion microscopy,and UV-vis spectroscopy.The photoconductivity and thermoelectric effects of the Sn_xSe_ythin films were then studied.The Sn_xSe_y thin films had a polycrystalline structure with an almost uniform surface and cluster type growth.The increasing atomic ratio of r in the films,the optical gap,photosensitivity and Seebeck coefficient were changed from 1.6 to 1.37 eV,0.01 to 0.31 and -26.2 to—42.7 mV/K (at T = 350 K),respectively.In addition,the XRD patterns indicated intensity peaks in r = 1 that corresponded to the increase in the SnSe and SnSe_2 phases.
