Abstract

Mn 1.56 Co 0.96 Ni 0.48 O 4 (MCN) thin films with different thickness es were synthesized on Si substrates by the chemical solution deposition method. M icrostructure s of the thin films w ere determin ed by atomic force microscop y T he ion by ion growth mechanism was the main reason for t he grain size increase d with the increasing film thickness . T he refractive indices and extinction coefficient s of MCN thin films were determined by measuring ellipsometry parameters and model ed through the Tauc Lorentz os cillator dispersion formula in the wavelength range of 280 850 nm T he optical constants n and k of MCN thin films were found to decrease with increasing thickness due to the variation s in microstructures.
