This research aims to overcome the challenges in creating pnictides with a wide band gap.
Synthesis of novel inorganic pnictides with varying ionic units A6Ch (A = Sr, Ba; Ch = S, Se, Te)
Characterization of materials to assess band gap properties
Comparative analysis of band gap widths across synthesized compounds.
Achieved a significant increase in band gap widths compared to traditional pnictides
Demonstrated that specific combinations of A and Ch enhance the wide band gap effect.
Resumen
The design and synthesis of novel inorganic pnictides have long been challenged by the difficulty of achieving wide band gap, with most pnictides exhibiting narrow band gap of Eg <...
