The development of eco-friendly, cost-effective, and naturally abundant electrode materials for supercapacitors is gaining critical importance in current energy storage research. This study focuses on the synthesis of tin sulfide (SnSx) films via the eco-friendly successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) method, employing varying quantities of L-ascorbic acid (0.8 and 1.0 g) as a reducing agent. Tin sulfide films were deposited on fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) glass substrates and subsequently annealed in an inert atmosphere at temperatures ranging from 200 to 400 °C, resulting in thin films of varying thicknesses (100–420 nm). The structural and compositional characteristics of the films were thoroughly analyzed using Raman spectroscopy to confirm the purity and spectroscopic signatures of the sulfides. Further characterization was performed to assess the films' morphology (scanning electron microscopy, SEM), phase composition (X-ray diffraction, XRD), surface chemical states (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, XPS), optical properties (UV–Vis spectroscopy), and electrical properties (Hall measurements). The gathered data were then used to evaluate the potential of tin sulfide films as electrode materials in supercapacitors, highlighting their suitability for sustainable energy storage applications.
