Abstract
Thin films of lead telluride (PbTe) and zinc telluride (ZnTe) have been electrodeposited on indium tin oxide (ITO)-coated glass substrates. The electrochemical deposition procedures for fabricating these films are described. The as-deposited films have been characterized by scanning electron microscopy, electron dispersive spectroscopy, and optical absorption spectrometry. The results of this structural and optical characterization are presented in this paper.
