Abstract
The dependence of the composition of Sb2S3 thin semiconducting films electrochemically deposited from an aqueous electrolyte containing SbOCl and Na2SO3 on the conditions of galvanostatic electrolysis was studied. With an increase in the SbOCl concentration and electrolysis time, the antimony content of the films obtained increases, whereas with an increase in the electrolyte temperature, current density, and Na2SO3 concentration the antimony content of the thin films decreases. The optimum electrolyte composition and electrochemical deposition conditions for preparing Sb2S3 thin films of the composition close to the stoichiometry were found.
