Abstract :
Composite phthalocyanine thin films were produced for the first time by exposure of thin films of an organic solvent soluble lead phthalocyanine derivative to H2S gas. UV-visible absorption and photoluminescence spectral measurements indicate the probable formation of lead sulfide clusters, while the film structure and morphology were studied with atomic force microscopy.
