Stability and synthesis across barium tin sulfide material space

Abstract

The underexplored Ba–Sn–S phase space is explored at various temperatures and cation ratios with combinatorial sputtering, crystallizing rocksalt-derived phases, Ba2SnS4, and Ba7Sn5S15. These findings are supported by DFT computed phase diagrams.

Metalloid-doping in SMoSe Janus layers: first-principles study on efficient catalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction

“…Transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD)-based two-dimensional (2D) materials have been strongly in focus recently due to their various structure-driven electronic and optical properties, suitable for a wide range of applications, such as in nanoelectronics, 1,2 spintronics, 3 gas sensing, 4,5 photocatalysis, 1,[6][7][8][9] electro-catalysis, [10][11][12][13][14][15] electrochemical energy storage, [16][17][18][19] and photonics. 20,21 The hexagonal phase is the most common stable phase of 2D materials.…”
