One-pot synthesis and third-order nonlinear optical properties of AgInS2 nanocrystals

Abstract
Good quality colloidal nanocrystals of metastable orthorhombic phase of AgInS2 obtained by decomposing the single-precursor [(Ph3P)2AgIn(SCOPh)4] in a mixture of dodecanethiol and oleic acid at 125–200 °C, exhibit significant third order non-linear optical properties.
