The method to synthesise monodisperse copper antimony sulfide (CAS) nanocrystals is reported for the first time. This material opens up a new class of I–V–VI semiconductor nanocrystals and antimony-based nanocrystals in general. The novel CAS nanocrystals synthesised here absorb over UV-vis-NIR wavelengths and are suitable for application in near infrared detectors, as well as telecommunication, thermoelectric, and solar photovoltaic devices.
