HgPS3
semiconductor· HgPS3
HgPS3 is a layered semiconductor compound composed of mercury, phosphorus, and sulfur, belonging to the family of metal phosphorus trisulfides. This material is primarily of research interest for two-dimensional electronics and optoelectronics, as its layered crystal structure allows mechanical exfoliation into few-layer or monolayer forms suitable for next-generation device applications. Unlike conventional bulk semiconductors, HgPS3's weak interlayer bonding and tunable electronic properties make it attractive for exploratory work in flexible electronics, photodetectors, and quantum device research, though it remains largely in the laboratory phase with limited commercial deployment.
