Abstract
Thin films of tin disulphide are prepared by reactive evaporation. It is shown that heating above 410K in vacuum reduces the resistivity of the as-prepared film by about ten orders of magnitude. Activation energies for conduction for both as-prepared and annealed films are determined. The refractive index and extinction coefficient are also determined.Keywords
