Abstract
Abstract: Chalcogenide-based materials, which are primarily made up of sulfur, selenium, and tellurium, have become an essential category of compounds for advanced optoelectronic and energy applications due to their distinctive electronic, optical, and thermal characteristics. These materials hold particular importance in the fields of photodetectors, solar cells, thermo electrics, and non-volatile memory devices. Their adjustable band gap, elevated refractive index, and capacity to create glassy phases render them suitable for sustainable energy solutions. This chapter delves into the synthesis, characterization, and application of chalcogenides, emphasizing recent developments and their contribution to facilitating environmentally friendly technologies. Through comparative analysis and experimental findings, we demonstrate how advancements in material engineering improve performance in energy harvesting and storage. We conclude by underscoring future opportunities and challenges in scaling these materials for commercial use.
