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.
