Cu2Zn0.8Cd0.2SnS4 quinternary alloy nanostructures were prepared with different copper (Cu) concentrations; 0.3, 0.5, 0.7 and 0.9 mol/L using the spin coating technique. The direct band gap energy of Cu2Zn0.8Cd0.2SnS4 quinternary alloy nanostructures is investigated to decrease as Cu increases. The transmittance value in the range 63–49% is depending on Cu content.

We have investigated the effect of uniform plane strain on the electronic properties of monolayer 1T-TiS2using first-principles calculations. With the appropriate tensile strain, the material properties can be transformed from a semimetal to a direct band gap semiconductor.

Using first principles calculations, we predicted that a direct-band-gap between 0.98 and 2.13 eV can be obtained in silicene by symmetrically and asymmetrically (Janus) functionalisation with halogen atoms and applying elastic tensile strain.
