N2 - In2S3 films of different thicknesses were deposited onto Corning 7059 glass substrates using close spaced evaporation method, at a constant substrate temperature and growth rate of 300 °C and 30 Å/s, respectively. The deposited layers were then annealed in vacuum at temperatures (Ta) in the range 100–500 °C for 1 h and changes in the chemical and physical properties of the layers were investigated. The films annealed at Ta300 nm and annealing temperature of 300 °C. A highest optical transmittance was found to be 92% in the annealing temperature range, 300 °C
