Experimental Demonstration of the Structure of Silar Synthesised Iron Lead Sulphide (PbS) Thin Films for Poultry Farms in Agbaja Unuhu-Ebonyi State-Nigeria

Abstract

The effect of iron-doping on lead sulphide (PbS) thin films deposited on glass substrates via successive ionic layer adsorption (SILAR) Technique using lead Nitrate, Pb(NO3)2, thiourea, Iron (II) Chloride dehydrate(Fe Cl2.2H2O), ethanol and ammonia by in alkaline medium annealed between 283K and 500K was investigated. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) Analysis and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were done to determine the structure and morphology respectively for use in poultry farms in Akpabuyo-Cross River State. The XRD showed PbS thin films being cubic and face-centred crystalline nanoparticles.
