Abstract:
This thesis deals with the preparation and properties of two compounds of V-II family, viz.
bismuth telluride and bismuth oxide, in thin filmform. In the first chapter is given the resume of
basic solid state physics relevant to the work reported here. In the second chapter the different
methods of thin film preparationtia described. Third chapter deals with the experimental techniques used for preparation and characterization of the films. Fourth chapter deals with the preparation and propertiesof bismuth telluride films. In next four chapters, the preparation and properties of bismuth oxide films are discussed in detail. In the last chapter the use of Bi205 films in the fabrication of Heat mirrors is examined and discussed.
