Abstract | ||||
The production of energy from nonrenewable resources is currently a major concern due to issues including ozone layer depletion, water pollution, global warming, environmental degradation, and the rise of new diseases. The increasing demand for energy transfer technologies and energy storage devices has obtained significant attention worldwide. In the field of inorganic chemistry, binary, ternary, quaternary, and multinary metal sulfides have been praised for their potential in energy conversion and storage. Metal complexes function as a precursor for metal chalcogenides based on their structure, stability, and thermal breakdown. Since structure and energy are two of the fundamental characteristics of molecules, they represent important concepts in modern chemistry. The synthesis of metal chalcogenide nanoparticles using single source precursors (SSP) has several advantages over alternative techniques. This article discusses the usage of diethyldithiocarbamate chelates as a single molecular precursor for a variety of metal sulfides, both binary and multicomponent. The use of these generated sulfides for energy storage is also covered. | ||||
