A novel plasma-based method for synthesis of arsenic sulfide films with different structural units and stoichiometries is demonstrated. For the first time As-S films have been prepared via direct conversion of arsenic monosulfide (As4S4) as a single precursor in a low-temperature non-equilibrium RF plasma discharge at low pressure. The interplay between composition, structure and properties of the chalcogenide materials prepared has been studied. Quantum-chemical calculations have been performed to gain insight into the films structure and the mechanism of its formation in the plasma discharge. Raman spectroscopy proves that with the As-content increase in the As-S films the intensity of the line, corresponding to vibrations of homopolar As-As bonds in the realgar As4S4 units and in the S2As-AsS2 bridges increases. The last ones are responsible for the appearance of a photoluminescence phenomenon in chalcogenide glasses.
