Abstract

SnSe2 thin films were prepared on glass substrate by thermal evaporation method. The resistivity of the films were measured in the temperature range 30–200 °C. It is observed that the as grown films are highly resistive and on heating the resistance abruptly changes. The heating and cooling curves of log of resistance versus temperature are not reproducible till the third cycle and this reproducible curve is similar to that for the films annealed at 200 °C for 3 hours.
