CAS 12039-15-5 Zirconium Disulfide (ZrS2) Crystal

Description

Description Zirconium disulfide (ZrS2) has a layered structure and belongs to group IV transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs). ZrS2 is thermodynamically stable, environmentally friendly, with high sensitivity and low production cost. The ZrS2 monolayer exhibits distinct n-type transport properties and high mobility.

Features And Benefits

Features And Benefits Octahedral (1T, space group: P3m1)
ZrS2 monolayer undergoes an indirect to direct band gap transition with increasing tensile strain
ZrS2 monolayer exhibit strong anisotropy

Application

Application ZrS2 is a promising optoelectronic material because of its greater carrier mobility and higher current density than MoS2 at room temperature, which is ideal for low-power devices. The single-layer indirect band gap of ZrS2 is about 1.7 eV and the direct band gap is about 2.0 eV, which can be used in thermoelectrics, Schottky solar cells, photodetectors, FETs, and catalytic hydrogen production.
