“…As a direct band gap semiconductor, In 2 S 3 with a wide energy gap ranging from 2 to 3.7 eV has attracted much attention for its optoelectronic, and acoustic properties [8,10,11]. Such a wide variation on its band gap has been attributed either to alloying and/or quantum size effects [12,13]. In 2 S 3 has been synthesized by spray pyrolysis [3,14], ultrasonic dispersion [15], chemical bath deposition [16], physical vapor deposition [17], etc.…”
