Tuning of the electrical and thermal properties of SnSb2S4 sulfosalt vacuum evaporated thin films subjected to a heat treatment for thermoelectric application

High-performance e-beam-deposited (Sn2Sb2S5)GO:FTO supercapacitor electrode and photocatalytic thinfilm for contaminants removal

“…2 Sulfosalt complexes have gained remarkable attention among scientists owing to their semiconductor and optical properties. 3 They are used in applications in various devices such as photovoltaics, energy conversion, memory devices, sensors, detectors, thin film solar cells and quantum dots. 4,5 Great interest has been garnered by the SnSbS ternary complexes for their energy band gaps and photonic applications since 1998.…”

“…16 Furthermore, these ligands are also capable of stabilizing a variety of oxidation states of transition metals. 17 Graphene oxide (GO) with its 2D lamellar structure contains sp 2 hybridized C atoms with conducting π-states and sp 3 C atoms with σ-states. 16,18 Both these carbon atoms are responsible for the modification of the GO characteristics.…”

Structural and optical studies of the novel BiSbS3 thin films prepared by chemical bath deposition technique

“…Among binary chalcogenides the antimony chalcogenides. The Sb-S and their ternary systems like Cu-Sb-S, Sn-Sb-S, In-Sb-S and Bi-Sb-S are important materials that received considerable attention in different articles owing to these materials are earth-abundant, inexpensive, non-toxic and have good electrical and optical properties (Bennaji et al 2018;Maiti et al 2019). Many articles focused on studying the physical properties of the CuSbS2, CuSbSe2 and SnSb2S4 thin films due to these films characterized by high values of absorption coefficient, ease of preparation, p-type conductivity and narrow bandgap energy.…”
