ZnCoCu2S4 is a quaternary sulfide compound combining zinc, cobalt, and copper in a mixed-metal sulfide structure. This material belongs to the family of multinary sulfides and is primarily of research interest for photovoltaic and thermoelectric applications, where its tunable bandgap and mixed-metal composition offer potential advantages over binary sulfides in absorbing solar radiation or converting heat to electricity.
