ABSTRACT The possibility of preparation SmS films by the chemical method from organic compounds has been studied.

For this

purpose

three types of coordinatively-saturated compounds based on dithiocarbamate complexes were synthesized and studied by various methods. Films were prepared by solution sputtering of these substances onto various substrates heated to the temperatures of 1800-300 0 C. The polycrystalline textured SmS films with thicknesses ranging from 0.1 to 1.5 mm and various stoichiometric compositions including samarium monosulfide films of cubic modificati0 on with the lattice constant of oC = 5.70 A were prepared.

Films of the rare-earth chalcogenide elements especially samarium monosulfide with abnormally high strain sensitivity are widely used as a strain and pressure sensors. films due to the phase transition of the first

The material under consideration is the result of investigations aimed at SmS film formation from organic compounds by the chemical method. For this purpose three types of starting materials, organic compounds with the Sm-S bond, containing dithiocarbamate ligands(dtc) were synthesized. ments:
