Electrodeposition of Sb2Se3 on indium-doped tin oxides substrate: Nucleation and growth

► In this paper, antimony selenide (Sb2Se3) was prepared onto (indium-doped tin oxides) ITO substrate using electrodeposition method. ► The deposition mechanism of antimony and selenium on ITO substrate were investigated. ► Nucleation and growth mechanism of Sb2Se3 was discussed according to chronoamperometry (CA) data. ► Electrochemical behavior of antimony onto Sb2Se3 was investigated. ► Morphology and crystalline structure of Sb2Se3 were measured using SEM and XRD.
