“…The metal sulfide [1][2][3] , metal selenide [4][5][6] and metal telluride films [7][8][9] have attracted great attention because of cost effective materials and low toxicity. The obtained films could be used in the solar control device, holographic, laser device 10 , sensor devices 11 , solar cell [12][13][14][15] and other optoelectronic devices 16 . The metal chalcogenide thin films have been produced by using different deposition techniques [17][18][19][20][21][22] such as electro deposition, spray pyrolysis, radio frequency sputtering, chemical vapour deposition, thermal evaporation, chemical bath deposition, solvo-thermal method, and successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) method.…”

The successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction method or called SILAR method was used to produce cobalt selenide thin films for the first time. The deposition was carried out onto the substrate under different various pH values. The X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) and ultraviolet visible spectrophotometer were used to investigate the structure, morphology and optical properties of thin films, respectively. The XRD patterns confirmed that the presence of cubic phase cobalt selenide thin films. The grain size increased with increasing the pH value from pH 2 to pH 4 based on the FESEM images. The band gap values are in the range of 2 eV to 2.5 eV.
