Abstract Cd0.5Zn0.5S film samples are prepared by a spray pyrolysis technique using aqueous solutions of CdCl2, ZnCl2, SC(NH2)2 and deionized water, which are atomized using compressed air as the carrier gas onto glass substrates with different water (H2O) concentrations. H2O is used as the activator. The prepared films are characterized by means of XRD and UV−VIS spectroscopy. Experimental results reveal that the structures and properties of the films are greatly affected by the H2O content. Water in a certain range of concentrations promotes the formation of the Cd0.5Zn0.5S films and improves the properties of the films.
