Zinc sulfide (ZnS) thin films, with different thicknesses and different silver (Ag) middle layer thickness, were prepared on glass substrates using thermal evaporation. The structural and optical properties of ZnS thin films were characterized by X-ray diffraction and UV-VIS-NIR spectrophotometer. The X-ray diffraction analyses indicated that ZnS films have cubic structure with (111) preferential orientation, whereas the diffraction patterns sharpen ...
