Abstract

Properties of CdS thin films were investigated applying atomic force microscopy (AFM) and Raman spectroscopy. CdS thin films were prepared by using thermal evaporation technique under base pressure 2 x 10-5 torr. The quality of these films was investigated by AFM spectroscopy. We apply Raman scattering to investigate optical properties of CdS thin films, and reveal existence of surface optical phonon (SOP) mode at 297 cm-1. Effective permittivity of mixture were modeled by Maxwell – Garnet approximation.
