Antimony sulfide (Sb2S3) thin films by pulse electrodeposition: Effect of thermal treatment on structural, optical and electrical properties

A Simple Fabrication of Sb2S3/TiO2 Photo-Anode with Long Wavelength Visible Light Absorption for Efficient Photoelectrochemical Water Oxidation

“…The XPS spectrum of Sb 2 S 3 /TiO 2 exhibited two peaks in the S 2p region at 161.4 and 162.4 eV correspond to S 2p 1/2 and S 2p 3/2 of divalent S in Figure 3c [16,19,41]. The peaks at 529.3 and 538.7 eV in the Sb 3d region for Sb 2 S 3 /TiO 2 , respectively, are assigned the Sb 3+ oxidation state of Sb and are consistent with the earlier-reported values of Sb 2 S 3 [19,[42][43][44]. The relatively weak peak at 531.…”

Enhanced Electrical Conductivity of Sb2S3 Thin Film via C60 Modification and Improvement in Solar Cell Efficiency

“…As show in Figure a, in the range between 150 and 600 cm −1 , both of the Raman spectra exhibited similar behaviors, and four peaks at 188, 237, 280, and 303 cm −1 could be observed. The peaks centered at 188, 237, 280, and 303 cm −1 could correspond to the vibration of the SbSb bond for Sb 2 S 3 structural units, to the antisymmetric SSbS vibration, the antisymmetric vibrations of SbS stretching in pyramidal symmetry, and the symmetric stretching of the SbS structural units, respectively . On the contrary, the Raman spectra in the range of 1300–1700 cm −1 displayed very different behaviors (Figure b).…”

A High-Entropy Multicationic Substituted Lithium Argyrodite Superionic Solid Electrolyte

“…The Sb 3d 5/2 spectrum was superimposed by the O 1s signal at a binding energy of E bin ≈ 532.5 eV. The asymmetry of the Sb 3d 5/2 component to low E bin indicated two oxidation states, 529.5 eV for Sb 3+ and 530.4 eV for Sb 5+ , confirming the Sb–S chemical environment in the surface region. − The O 1s peak was asymmetric to high E bin , suggesting the presence of at least two chemical states, at 532.0 and 532.9 eV (Figure a). These states can probably be attributed to oxygenated Si, Sb, P, and/or Ge.…”
