title: Chemistry of metal thio- and selenocarboxylates: precursors for metal sulfide/selenide materials, thin films, and nanocrystals.
abstract: This Account focuses on recent developments of the chemistry of metal thio- and selenocarboxylates in our laboratory and potential use of some of these compounds as single-source precursors for making metal sulfide and selenide bulk materials, thin films, and nanoparticles.
