L-butyl-3-methylimidazolium dicyanamide

Tin monosulfide (SnS) is a promising material for thin-film photovoltaic applications. The semiconductor has an indirect band gap of 1.1 eV and a direct band gap of 1.3 eV. Furthermore, it shows intrinsic p-type conductivity. Recently, Steichen et al. [38] reported a direct electrodeposition of p-type SnS on molybdenum in l-butyl-3-methylimidazolium dicyanamide ([C4mim][N(CN)2]) iraiic liquid containing elemental sulfur and SnCl2 above 100 °C. The authors proposed that...
