FABRICATION, OPTICAL SYNTHESIZATION AND SYNTHESIZATION OF MANGANESE OXIDE (MnO) THIN FILMS DOPED WITH IRON (II) (Fe)

Abstract

The fabrication, optical synthesization and synthesization of manganese oxide (MnO) thin films doped with iron (ii) (Fe) was studied using chemical bath deposition (CBD) technique. Manganese Oxide was doped with Fe (II) at different time and millage of 0.2M aqueous ammonia (NH4OH) solution. The effect of deposition time on complexed and non-complexed of iron doping on structure of the films were investigated. Optical analysis showed that MnO have high transparency at the near infra-red (NIR) region and could be possibly be used as material for poultry roofs and walls which is more advantageous than using the conventional methods of heating.
