Résumé:
Iron disulfide has attracted a lot of interest in the field of photovoltaic applications due
to its favorable electronic and optical properties. This work focuses on the elaboration of
nanostructured FeS
2
thin films for photovoltaic solar cell applications. By using the simplest
and least expensive deposition processes, the method leads to the synthesis of iron disulfide
thin films with the desirable pyrite phase. Therefore, the emphasis is placing on the chemical
bath deposition (CBD) method. The study of iron disulfide thin films requires the use of many
characterization techniques for structural, morphological, electrical and optical analysis.
