ABSTRACT
In2S3 thin films were grown by means chemical bath deposition from acid solution. Calculation of ionic equilibrium with using of thermodynamic constants for systems defines boundary conditions of formation In2S3. Films were characterized by means of XRD, SEM, EDX and XPS methods. According to X-ray analysis In2S3 thin films has a cubic structure. XPS method was shown that the surface of In2S3 thin film includes oxygen and carbon contained impurities. SEM confirmed nanosized nature of thin films. Optical band gap of indium(III) sulfide equal to 2.3 eV.
