CuPS2
metal· JVASP-106817· CuPS2
CuPS2 is a copper-based sulfide compound belonging to the metal chalcogenide family, combining copper with phosphorus and sulfur elements. This material is primarily investigated in materials research for electrochemical and photovoltaic applications, particularly as a potential absorber layer or electrode material in thin-film solar cells and energy storage devices. Its mixed-metal-sulfide composition positions it as an alternative to conventional cadmium or lead-based chalcogenides, offering potential advantages in cost, toxicity, and tunability for next-generation semiconductor and catalytic devices.
