Tin sulphide (SnS) films have been electrodeposited and the materials properties are reported, The potential-pH diagram of Sn and S in aqueous medium are superimposed to obtain the common immunity domains which predicts a pH value 1.5 and deposition potential of ·1.0 VseE for the stoichiometric deposition. Films are cathodically deposited on 500 2 coated conducting glass substrates at bath temperatures 303-353 K. XRD studies show the polycrystalline nature with orthorhombic structure. The optical band gap of the snS film is 1.1 eV from the absorption studies. ESCA spectrum confirms the presence of Sn and S on the grey black sample. Uniform, smooth and pin hole free surface morphology is observed by SEM.

“…Semiconductor thin films synthesized by chemical deposition and electrochemical method are having lot of attraction for designing the systems for electro-optics and PEC conversion of solar energy [5]. Sharon et al [6] emphasized the necessity of testing new materials as photo-anode for their possible applications in the PEC-based devices. The main requirement for a PEC solar cell is that photo-anode/photo-cathode should have band gap energy very close to the maximum in the visible spectrum and the semiconductor-electrolyte system must be stable [7].…”

“…The comparison of FeCl 3 and K 4 Fe(CN) 6 based solar rechargeable storage cells, shows that the FeCl 3 based storage cell is superior than that of K 4 Fe(CN) 6 because relatively charging time is minimum and discharging time is maximum. Thus the storage cell works not only as generator but also as the storage of electricity.…”

“…Similar studies have been carried out by Dhumure and Pawar et al [13,14] for chemical bath deposited CdSe and electrodeposited CdSe photoelectrodes. The Changes in photovoltage during charging mode and photovoltage and photocurrent during discharging mode for FeCl 3 and K 4 Fe(CN) 6 based solar rechargeable storage cells are tabulated in the Table 1.…”

“…A number of review articles on PEC storage have been appeared in the literature [4,5]. Photoelectrochemical (PEC) solar cell can be converted into rechargeable electrochemical storage cell, when the storage electrode, capable of undergoing a reversible chemical change is used in it [6]. The solar energy storage with the help of semiconductor-septum (SC-SEP) cell is most promising and attracting due to its inherent properties.…”
