Abstract
Thermal evaporation technique was used to prepare Cu13Se52Bi35 thin films. The asdeposited and annealed samples were investigated by using the X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and optical transmission and reflection. The XRD showed that the as-deposited film is crystalline in nature, and the crystalline size of samples increased with increasing the annealing temperature. SEM images showed that the morphology of the sample changes with the annealing temperature. The direct transition of the optical band gap (Eg) of Cu13Se52Bi35 films was observed and the values of Eg decreased with increasing the annealing temperature. Other optical parameters were also investigated.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
