The deposited films thickness was found to be about 350±30 nm. The films were annealed at two different temperatures (450 oC and 500oC). The X-ray Diffraction spectra (XRD) results indicate that the structure of the three prepared thin films was polycrystalline in nature and has a hexagonal phase with preferred orientation along (104) plane. Temperature annealing effects on the optical properties of the deposited films was studied. It was found that, the optical parameters, such as the refractive index (n), the real (ε1) and imaginary (ε2) parts of dielectric constant which related to n, Urbach energy and the energy gap; all depend on the annealing temperature. The results show that there was a reduction in the optical absorbance as well as the dielectric constants. The dispersion parameters decreased with the increasing annealing temperature while the determined Urbach energy was increased. The optical energy gap decreased from 2.74 to 2.67 eV with the increasing annealing temperature, on the account that there is an inverse relation between Urbach energy and energy gap. 2019-03-06T09:55:07Z 2019-03-06T09:55:07Z 2019-01 Article International Journal of Nanoelectronics and Materials, vol.12(1), 2019, pages 1-10 1985-5761 (Printed) 1997-4434 (Online) http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/58786 en Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP)
