الملخص EN

This research deals with the study of the structural and optical energy gap of NiO nano films in thickness 100nm were deposited on a glass substrate using sol-gel spin coating technique .

XRD results indicated that the films are polycrystalline and have cubic structure with a preferred orientation along (111) .

The average grain sizes of the crystallites estimated form XRD data was found to lie in the range of 19.11-23.05 nm.

Data of AFM indicate that the surface of films is smooth .

The optical transmittance value of nano NiO film reaches to 94% in the VIS and NIR regions, while it is value of films deposited with 0.1mol%Cu reaches to (92)% which is important for its applications as window layers in solar cells .The values of optical energy gap of NiO and Cu doping by 0.01,0.05, 0.1mol% were equal to 3.73 and (3.61,3.49,3.42eV) respectively.
