The structural and morphological studies were performed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) Analysis and scanning electron microscopy(SEM) respectively. The XRD showed films of cubic crystalline PbS thin films, cubic and face- centred crystalline PbSFe thin films, cubic CuS thin film, hexagonal Cu 2 S thin films and cubic and hexagonal crystalline natured CuSFe thin films with the preferential (111),(002)(004) (311) orientations. From the structural and morphological studies, the iron lead sulphide, and iron copper sulphide thin films can be good materials for baby incubation in neo-natal unit of hospitals and adapted in Ebonyi State University Abakaliki - Nigeria due to their new characteristics. Keywords: Baby incubation; copper sulphide(CuS); iron-doping; lead sulphide(PbS); structural and morphological studies. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ * Corresponding author.
