Abstract

Nanoparticles (NPS) of Tin sulfide has been prepared by laser ablation of a solid target (SnS) in water solution. SnS colloidal nanoparticles NPs have been synthesized by laser ablation Nd:YAG (1064nm ,100 pulses, pulse energy= 400mJ) when the solid target Tin sulfide SnS was immersed in water H2O. Structure, topography,morphology Optical studies of the SnS NPS have been studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD) , atomic force microscope (AFM), scanning electron microscope,tunneling electron microscopy (TEM) and UV-Vis spectrophotometer respectively.
