CdCu2Sn3S8
metal· JVASP-143865· CdCu2Sn3S8
CdCu2Sn3S8 is a quaternary sulfide compound belonging to the metal chalcogenide family, combining cadmium, copper, and tin with sulfur. This is a research-phase material primarily investigated for semiconductor and photovoltaic applications, where its tunable bandgap and mixed-metal composition offer potential advantages for thin-film solar cells and optoelectronic devices. The material represents an experimental approach to improving upon established binary and ternary sulfide systems (such as CdS or CZTS) by leveraging multiple metal cations to enhance light absorption and carrier transport properties.
