In this study, seed-mediated hydrothermal methods has been used to fabricate sulfur-doped
zinc oxide (S-ZnO) thin films with various atomic concentration of sulfur (S) (0 at.%, 1 at.%,
2.5 at.%, 5 at.% and 10 at.%). The growth process was conducted at 90 °C for 5 hours by
the varying concentrations of sodium sulfide (Na2S). X-Ray diffraction (XRD) analysis
revealed that thin films are a hexagonal wurtzite polycrystalline structure, and the size of
the crystal was slightly changed with the addition of S. The field effect scanning electron
microscopy (FESEM) images showed the geometrical shape of the S-ZnO samples were
nanorod with hexagonal cross section. The UV-Vis absorbance spectrum for all samples
occurred in the wavelength range of 300-380 nm and 380-800 nm for high and low
absorbance. The energy gap of the S-ZnO samples are in the range of 3.25-3.30 eV. The
photoluminescence spectrum shows that the peak emission that occurs at a wavelength of
406 nm is the violet emission.
