Abstract :
We prepared ZnS thin films by photochemical deposition (PCD) using continuous and pulsed illumination. The aqueous solution containing ZnSO/sub 4/, Na/sub 2/S/sub 2/O/sub 3/ and H/sub 2/SO/sub 4/ was illuminated with light from a high-pressure mercury lamp. When the illumination was continuous, the deposited film was black and not transparent. But pulsed illumination made the deposited film white and transparent. And the film deposited by pulsed illumination has photosensitivity.
