Abstract
The influence of annealing on solvent-cast arsenic sulfide films has been studied through its effect on morphology, structure, and optical properties. Transmission electron microscopy accompanied by electron and x-ray diffraction studies showed morphologic and structural transformations upon annealing. Thermal densification and effect of heat treatment on the ultraviolet/visible optical properties were also investigated. The results are in agreement with an evolving model for the solvent cast arsenic sulfides, in which 50-Å-diam macromolecules are deposited from solution and cross linked into a network glass during subsequent annealing.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
