Fractal characteristics of nanocrystalline indium and gallium sulfide particles

Core level photoelectron spectroscopy of LiGaS2 and Ga–S bonding in complex sulfides

“…Within the past few years many binary and ternary sulfide systems were evaluated in searching for new compounds with noncentrosymmetric crystal structure and nonlinear optical (NLO) properties [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. Among known crystals several binary and ternary thiogallates are showing high level of NLO susceptibility and pronounced ability for solid solution formation necessary for accurate tuning of optical properties by doping [1][2][3]5,7,[13][14][15][16][17].…”

Accessing γ-Ga2S3 by solventless thermolysis of gallium xanthates: a low-temperature limit for crystalline products

“…12 [MeGa(SCH2CH2S)]3 was used to synthesize nanometric β-Ga2S3 when pyrolysed between 300 and 500 °C. 13 Ramalingam et al have prepared α-Ga2S3 nanoparticles from tris(cyclo-hexylmethyldithiocarbamato) gallium(III) and tris(cyclohexyl-ethyldithiocarbamato) gallium(III), using a solvothermal method. 14 Malik et al synthesised monodispersed cubic GaS nanoparticles using [Ga(S2CNEt2)3] in 4ethylpyridine at 167 °C.…”

From Metal Thiobenzoates to Metal Sulfide Nanocrystals: An Experimental and Theoretical Investigation

“…The synthesis of metal sulfide nanocrystals has attracted much interest for both fundamental research and technological applications in the past decades [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 ]. Metal sulfide nanocrystals have been prepared by a wide range of synthetic methods, one of which involves the direct decomposition of molecular precursors [ 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 ]. Molecular precursor approach has recently been developed as an efficient route to prepare monodispersed semiconductor nanocrystals [ 7 , 10 , 15 ] and, in some cases, unique shape-control has been achieved [ 9 , 11 , 16 ].…”
