Poster session presented at2015 E-MRS Spring Meeting, Lille, France.This work has been supported by a grant from the Danish Council of Strategic ResearchChalcogenide compounds made by pulsed laser deposition at 355 and 248 nmSummary• Thin films made by pulsed laser deposition maydiffer depending on the laser wavelength. Wecompared ZnS, Cu2SnS3 and a target enrichedwith SnS relative to Cu2SnS3 using 355 nm and 248 nm lasers.• Cu2SnS3 deposition gives a high density of droplets at 355 nm. The higher UV 248 nm laser was expected to reduce the droplets but did not.• The SnS enriched Cu-Sn-S films had differentmorphology and post-annealing compositionusing the two lasersDepositions were done at 20-25 °C.

In contrast, films of SnS-enriched Cu2SnS3by the two lasers were highly distinct. The as-deposited films had a similar atomic composition, but the annealed films differed both in composition and appearance.All films except the SnS-enriched film deposited at 355 nm contain bubbles; large burst bubbles were seen in the Cu2SnS3film deposited at 355 nm. 1 μm10 μm10 μm 10 μm1 μm 1 μmMoCu-Sn-SMoCu-Sn-SMoCu-Sn-SMoCu-Sn-SSoda-lime glassSoda-lime glassFor the deposition rate measurements at 355 nm, the spot size was 1 mm2and the films were measured by Dektak profilometry.For the 248 nm measurements, the spot size was 2.2 mm2 and a quartz crystalmicrobalance was used to monitor film growth.
