Nickel Sulfide/Nitrogen‐Doped Graphene Composites: Phase‐Controlled Synthesis and High Performance Anode Materials for Lithium Ion Batteries

“…02‐1273). In fact, it is a general phenomenon that sulfides release some sulfur and change the phase under prolonged heating 26, 29, 42, 43. The evaporation of sulfur could be observed from TGA at ∼300 °C, where a mass loss occurred as shown in Figure S3.…”

Optical properties of amorphous CuS thin films deposited chemically at different pH values

“…Similar to other deposited thin films, the properties of amorphous chalcogenide thin films also dramatically depend on their deposition conditions [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]. The deposition of chalcogenide thin films is achieved by vacuum thermal evaporation [8], thermal evaporation [9], the flash evaporation method [10] and chemical bath deposition (CBD) [11]. Of all these techniques the CBD method, which is used for large area deposition without the need for sophisticated instrumentation, is a promising process for the fabrication of opto-electronic devices; it also offers a wide variety of applications, including ferroelectric thin films, high-density optical data storage or semiconductors [12].…”

Structural and optical studies of chemically deposited Sn2S3 thin films

“…The interest in semiconductor thin films of chalcogenides such as Cu x S [1], Sn x S y [2], CuInSe 2 [3], CuInS [4] is increasing day by day due to their potential applications. Among these, Sn x S y is very promising as a material for the researchers, due to its different phases and properties [5].…”
