Solution-phase synthesis of the chalcogenide perovskite barium zirconium sulfide as colloidal nanomaterials

Chem Commun (Camb). 2022 Sep 20;58(75):10512-10515. doi: 10.1039/d2cc03494h.

Abstract

Chalcogenide perovskites such as BaZrS3 have promising optoelectronic properties. Methods to produce these materials at low temperatures, especially in the solution phase, are currently scarce. We describe a solution-phase synthesis of colloidal nanoparticles of BaZrS3 using reactive metal amide precursors. The nanomaterials are crystallographically and spectroscopically characterized.
