This review summarizes the syntheses and applications of metal oxysulfides. Bulk
compounds of rare earth and transition metals are discussed in the section Introduction …

Layered oxychalcogenides have recently emerged as promising thermoelectric materials.
The alternation of ionic oxide and covalent chalcogenide layers found in these materials …

A new layered pnictide oxide (Fe 2 P 2)(Sr 4 Sc 2 O 6) has been synthesized by solid-state
reaction. This material has an alternating layer stacking structure of anti-fluorite Fe 2 P 2 and …

A series of layered oxychalcogenide and oxypnictide solids is described that contain oxide
layers separated by distinct layers, which contain the softer chalcogenide (S, Se, Te) or …

We use first-principles density functional theory calculations to investigate the ground-state
structure of sulfide perovskite BaZrS 3. The material has a lower band gap than its oxide …

The antiferromagnetic structures of the layered oxychalcogenides (Sr1− x Ba x)
2CoO2Cu2S2 (0≤ x≤ 1) have been determined by powder neutron diffraction. In these …

The basic structural chemistry of superconducting pnictides and pnictide oxides is reviewed.
Crystal chemical details of selected compounds and group subgroup schemes are …

Layered oxychalcogenides have received extensive attention in the fields of magnetism,
superconductivity, lithium battery, and luminescence due to their unique electronic, magnetic …

We have discovered new arsenide oxides (Fe 2 As 2)(Sr 4 M 2 O 6)(M= Sc, Cr: M-22426).
These materials are isostructural with (Fe 2 P 2)(Sr 4 Sc 2 O 6), which was found in our …

The second class of high-temperature superconductors (HTSCs), iron-based pnictides and
chalcogenides, necessarily contain Fe 2 X 2 (" X" refers to a pnictogen or a chalcogen …
