Abstract
We prepared polycrystalline silver indium selenide thin films by vacuum evaporation on glass substrate at a high temperature using the stoichiometric powder. The samples were subjected to the irradiation of 1.26 M eV He+ ion. The effect of irradiation on the optical properties has been investigated for different fluencies of He+. The thin films were characterized by X-ray diffraction and UV–vis–NIR spectroscopy. It is observed that the band gap of silver indium selenide thin films decreases gradually from 1.17 to 0.82 eV with ion fluency.
