| Summary: | In this work, copper sulphide thin films were deposited onto microscope glass slide by
chemical bath deposition technique. The tartaric acid was served as complexing agent to chelate
with Cu2+ to obtain complex solution. The influence of pH value on the surface morphologies of the
films has been particularly investigated using the atomic force microscopy technique. The atomic
force microscopy results indicate that the CuS films deposited at pH 1 were uniform, compact and
pinhole free. However, the incomplete surface coverage observed for the films prepared at high pH
(pH 2 and 2.5) values. |
