“…As shown in Figure a, all the diffraction peaks in the XRD pattern, which are in close agreement with the reported data, can be readily indexed to an orthorhombic phase of Cu 3 BiS 3 (JCPDS card No. 43–1479) . No evidence of other impurities such as CuS and Bi 2 S 3 was observed, which indicates that pure Cu 3 BiS 3 can be obtained under the current synthesis conditions.…”

Hydrophilic Cu3BiS3 nanoparticles (NPs) have been prepared using the thermal decomposition of precursor complexes in oily‐mixed solvent followed by coating the produced Cu3BiS3 NPs with polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). The resulting Cu3BiS3/PVP NPs remain stable in aqueous solutions over a long period of time, and meanwhile, they show low in vitro cytotoxicity and negligible toxicity to mice in vivo. Cu3BiS3/PVP NPs could operate as an efficient dual‐modal contrast agent to simultaneously enhance X‐ray computed tomography imaging and photothermal imaging of tumor model in vivo. Moreover, highly efficient ablation of cancer cells both in vitro and in vivo has been successfully achieved by combining Cu3BiS3/PVP NPs with near‐infrared (NIR) laser irradiation. All of the positive results in this study highlight that Cu3BiS3/PVP NPs could serve as a promising platform for cancer diagnosis and therapy.

“…However, the progress of chemical methods suitable for the synthesis of a ternary Cu 3 BiS 3 still remains a major challenge. The wide range of techniques that have been employed to prepare Cu 3 BiS 3 semiconductor material had been reviewed with the hope of distinguishing new [43,57]; nanosheets (c) [42]; nanorods (d, e) [37,47]; dendrites (f) [56]; flower-like hierarchical (g) [38]; corallike (h) [60]; bent-like nanorods (i) [39]; spherical nanoparticles (j) [55]; nanoneedle-like (k) [29] and 3D flower-like ball (l) [45] morphologies of Cu 3 BiS 3 paths for productive research based on the present author's work.…”

“…Therefore, the solvothermal method is suitable for the synthesis of novel nanomaterials with good crystallinity. First time, in 2012 Yan et al [37] reported a solvothermal route to synthesize good-quality Cu 3 BiS 3 nanoparticles at 180°C for 20 h in a Teflon-lined autoclave containing Cu(NO 3 ) 2 Á3H 2 O (2.42 g), Bi(NO 3 ) 3 Á5H 2 O (0.97 g), and thiourea (1.52 g) dissolved in 25 ml of ethylene glycol (EG). The XRD pattern indicated the phase purity of Cu 3 BiS 3 with crystalline grains of *40 nm.…”

Since the last few decades, light-absorbing materials based on CuInGaSe 2 (CIGS), CuInS 2 (CIS), and CdTe have dominated the research in thin-film solar cells.To fabricate large-scale solar cells from these materials, problems may arise due to limited availability of the constituents, viz. Se, In, Cd, and Te, and the toxicity of some of these elements. Hence, recent research efforts are attentive toward abundantly available non-toxic, larger value of absorption coefficient and non-conventional elements. The Cu 3 BiS 3 having wittichenite orthorhombic structure is one the most promising absorber layer candidates for low-cost thin-film solar cells. It has suitable direct band gap (1.10-1.86 eV), large absorption coefficient (10 5 cm -1 ) with composition of earth abundant, and relatively non-toxic and cost-effective constituents. Till now, a majority work was done on the preparation of Cu 3 BiS 3 thin films by various techniques. Therefore, a comprehensive review of recent literature of Cu 3 BiS 3 is urgently required. This paper will review the various techniques that have been used to deposit Cu 3 BiS 3 semiconductor with the hope of new paths for the beginner.

“…Several researchers reported nanoparticles similar to 1D-SNF in structure, synthesis or superhydrophobic behaviour [102][103][104][105][106][107]. However, either the existence of one-dimensional particles is not discussed, no or ambiguous analytical data are provided or the true onedimensional character of the product remains unclear.…”

A decade ago one-dimensional silicone nanofilaments (1D-SNF) such as fibres and wires were described for the first time. Since then, the exploration of 1D-SNF has led to remarkable advancements with respect to material science and surface science: one-, two-and three-dimensional nanostructures of silicone were unknown before. The discovery of silicone nanostructures marks a turning point in the research on the silicone material at the nanoscale. Coatings made of 1D-SNF are among the most superhydrophobic surfaces known today. They are free of fluorine, can be applied to a large range of technologically important materials and their properties can be modified chemically. This opens the way to many interesting applications such as water harvesting, superoleophobicity, separation of oil and water, patterned wettability and storage and manipulation of data on a surface. Because of their high surface area, coatings consisting of 1D-SNF are used for protein adsorption experiments and as carrier systems for catalytically active nanopartides. This paper reviews the current knowledge relating to the broad development of 1D-SNF technologies. Common preparation and coating techniques are presented along with a comparison and discussion of the published coating parameters to provide an insight on how these affect the topography of the 1D-SNF or coating. The proposed mechanisms of growth are presented, and their potentials and shortcomings are discussed. We introduce all explored applications and finally identify future prospects and potentials of 1D-SNF with respect to applications in material science and surface science.
