Abstract Pure and doped semiconductor nanoforms are explored extensively due to their unique properties. Here, we synthesized Sb2-x BixS3 (x = 0.0, 0.004, 0.008.) nanoparticles by chemical route using SbCl3, CH3CSNH2 and Bi (NO3)3.5H2O. The purity of Sb2-x BixS3 (x = 0.0, 0.004, 0.008.) nanoparticles is confirmed by energy dispersive analysis of X – Rays (EDAX). From X- Ray diffractrogram, we determined the orthorhombic structure of all samples with Pnma space group and also evaluated lattice parameters. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) images gave the size of nanoparticles ranging from 8 nm to 35 nm. Room temperature UV – VIS, Raman, FTIR and PL spectra led to the determination of band gap, various stretching modes, vibrations mode and emission bands respectively. The detailed results are presented in the paper.
