Munikrishna VedavathiA. 1220121216Based on the experimental results, the effect of the temperature on the optical and structural characters of the FeS2 thin films produced using Chemical Bath Deposition (CBD), has been symmetrically studied. The deposited thin films are characterized with X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and UV-Vis spectrometer. The XRD pattern indicates that the numbers of peaks are increased from 2 to 6 as temperature increased from 50-80°C. The diffraction peaks deposited at 80°C are very sharp with the high intensity indicating the significance in grain size and Polycrystalline orthorhombic nature. The variation of the direct band gap of the films with temperature is estimated and correlated with theoretical values. All the films show a gradually increasing absorbance throughout the visible region which makes it possible for this material to be used in photo electrochemical cell.]]>Anuar, K., W.T. Tan, N.
