Ossila/ZrS3, Zirconium Trisulfide Powder and Crystals | 12166-31-3/Zirconium Trisulfide Powder / 1 g/Small (≥10mm^2)
Low price, high purity ZrS3 powder and crystals
Zirconium trisulfide (ZrS3) is a typical representative of layered transition metal trichalcogenides (TMTCs).
ZrS3 is an indirect gap semiconductor as its bulk and its monolayer undergoes an indirect to direct band gap transition with increasing tensile strain. ZrS3 layers possess a pseudo one-dimensional nature where each layer consists of ZrS3 chains extending along the b-lattice direction. The optical properties of few-layer zirconium trisulfide has been demonstrated to be highly anisotropic as shown by large photoluminescence (PL) intensity variation with the polarization direction along the chain.
We supply zirconium trisulfide in both powdered and crystal forms.

ZrS3 Structure and Properties
After exfoliation of zirconium trisulfide crystals or powder, zirconium trisulfide typically has the following properties:
- Monoclinic (space group: P21/m)
- ZrS3 monolayer undergoes an indirect to direct band gap transition with increasing tensile strain
- Highly anisotropic
- Transition metal trichalcogenides (TMTCs)
See the properties tab for more details.
Applications of Zirconium Trisulfide
Zirconium trisulfide (ZrS3) single crystals can be used to prepare monolayer and few-layer ZrS3 by mechanical or liquid exfoliation. In its powdered form, it is suitable for liquid chemical exfoliation to prepare ZrS3 nanosheets and nanoparticles down to few-layer films.
ZrS3 has potential applications in thermal batteries, perovskite solar cells, perovskite light-emtting diodes and electronics such as in-plane anisotropic FETs. It can also be used in optoelectronics such as polarization-sensitive photodetectors and thermoelectric, piezoelectric, and ferroelectric devices. See the applications tab for more details.

Structure of Zirconium Trisulfide
Zirconium trisulfide (ZrS3) belongs to the low-symmetry crystals system with monoclinic structure. ZrS3 layers possess a pseudo one-dimensional nature where each layer consists of ZrS3 chains extending along the b-lattice direction.
ZrS3 may be better described by ionic model as Zr4+(S2)2-S2-. A basic structural fragment prism {ZrS6/2} is constructed from two disulfide (S‒S)2- groups as well as two sulfide groups S2- with Zr atom situated near the centre of the prism. Such prisms with metal atoms situated close to the prism centres are connected to each other via common triangle bases to form infinite columns. This leads to strong anisotropic behaviour that offers additional advantages over isotropic 2D systems.
Applications of Zirconium Trisulfide
Zirconium trisulfide is a promising candidate for thermal batteries and used as hole transporting layer in perovskite solar cells and perovskite light-emtting diodes. The high anisotropy in the light absorption of ZrS3 monolayer makes it a potential candidate for the design and applications in electronics such as in-plane anisotropic FETs, optoelectronics such as polarization-sensitive photodetectors and thermoelectric, piezoelectric, and ferroelectric devices.
