Description and Uses

Tin sulfide (SnS), with a direct energy band-gap of about 1.3 eV, and a high optical absorption coefficient over 5 × 104 cm-1,?is a promising new candidate for applications in the next generation of photovoltaic solar cells. Made of earth-abundant, relatively cheap and environmentally-nontoxic elements, SnS is solution processable and stable in both alkaline and acidic conditions.

Polymerization catalyst.Tin(II) sulfide is used as a polymerization catalyst. It is also used as a friction material. Further, it is used in optoelectronic device as well as a component in heterojunction photovoltaic devices.
