AB  - Biological approach synthesis and characterization of Iron Sulfide (FeS) thin 
      films from banana peel extract for contamination remediation of environment 
      studied. Iron chloride, Sodium thiosulfate and Ethylene-di-amine-tetra acetate 
      (EDTA) were used as precursor solutions without further purification. The 
      nanoparticle of banana peel was extracted and prepared with synthesized FeS thin 
      films and analyzed by X ray-diffraction for structural examination, Scanning 
      electron microscope (SEM) for surface morphological analysis, 
      Ultra-violet-visible-spectrometer (UV-Vis) and photo-luminescence 
      spectro-photo-meter (P-L) for optical characterizations. XRD peaks are shown with 
      recognized to (110), (200), (310), and (301) crystalline planes. The occurrence 
      of this deflection peak are recognised the FeS crystal segment of the tetragonal 
      crystalline systems. SEM micrographs of the films prepared biological method show 
      the distribution of grains, which cover the surface of the substrate completely 
      and are uniform and films deposited purely have defects. The photo-luminescence, 
      absorbance, and transmittance strength of banana peel extract FeS thin film is 
      greater than pure FeS thin films in which wide-ranging and symmetries groups were 
      perceived. In the present study, the comparison of pure FeS thin films and Nano 
      synthesized banana peel extract with FeS thin films was studied. It is observed 
      that Nano synthesized banana fibre absorbs higher than pure FeS thin films in 
      solar cell application. Finally, green synthesis is an ecofriendly, easy and 
      cheap promising method for the fabrication of thin films for solar cell 
      applications.
