Wurtzite semiconductor CuInS2 [CIS] has been reported in recent years. As a kind of metastable structure, it is a great challenge to synthesize pure wurtzite CIS at low temperature. In this paper, via a simple and quick solution route, we synthesize both wurtzite- and chalcopyrite-structure CIS. Well-controlled wurtzite CIS hexagonal plates are obtained when an appropriate agent is added. The i...

CuIn2n+1S3n+2 crystals were synthesized by horizontal Bridgman method using high purity copper, indium, sulfur elements. The phases and crystallographic structure of the CuIn2n+1S3n+2 crystals were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and the composition of the material powders was determined using the energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX). Measurement data revealed that CuIn2n+1S3n+2 materials...

Bias-Free Water Splitting In article number 2204495, Xin Tong, Lianzhou Wang, Zhiming M. and co-workers develop a quantum dots (QDs)-based photoelectrochemical (PEC) device comprised of tandem Zn-doped CuInS2 QDs-decorated metal oxide electrodes (BiVO4 Cu2O) for bias-free solar water splitting. Both the ligands capped on QDs QDs-electrode heterojunctions are rationally engineered to promote pho...
