The $SnS_2,;SnS_2:Cd$, and $SnS_2:Sb$ single crystals were grown by the chemical transport reaction method. The indirect optical energy band gap was found to be 2.348, 2.345, and 2.343 eV for the $SnS_2,;SnS_2:Cd$, and $SnS_2:Sb$ single crystals, at 6 K respectively. The direct optical energy band gap was found to be 2.511, 2.505, and 2.503 eV f3r the $SnS_2,;SnS_2:Cd$, and $SnS_2:Sb$ single crystals, at 6 K respectively The temperature dependence of the optical energy band gap was well fitted by the Varshni equation. Two photoluminescence emission peaks with the peak energy of 2.214 and 1.792 eV for $SnS_2$, 2.214 and 1.837 eV for $SnS_2:Cd$, and 2.214 and 1.818 eV the $SnS_2:Sb$ were observed. The emission peaks were described as originating from the donor-acceptor pair recombinations.?
