Electrical and optical properties of thermally evaporated vacuum annealed Zinc 2, 11, 20, 29 Tetra -Tert -Butyl 2, 3 Naphthalocyanine (ZTTBNc) thin films are studied. From the Arrhenius plot, the thermal activation energy is calculated for intrinsic and extrinsic region. Different hopping conduction parameters are tabulated using the Variable Range Hopping (VRH) model in the low temperature region. Optical absorption spectra of ZTTBNc thinfilm reveals that B bands posses the same wavelength region while Q bands shift to 165 nm from as deposited to maximum vacuum annealed sample. Further the Q band splitting is also absent for 523 K vacuum annealed thinfilm. Also ZNTTBNc thinfilms have a wide optical bandgap with a consistant trap level energy as that of any other organic semiconductors.
