ChemInform Abstract: Solution Synthesis and Reactivity of Colloidal Fe2GeS4: A Potential Candidate for Earth Abundant, Nanostructured Photovoltaics.

Abstract Colloidal nanostructures of Fe 2 GeS 4 are synthesized by injection of a solution of hexamethyldisilazane and hexamethyldisilathiane in octadecene at 120 °C into a mixture of FeCl 2 , GeI 4 , hexadecylamine, and octadecene followed by heating (320 °C, 24 h).
