Applications
Bismuth trisulfide is photoelectric material, because B2S3 own property of environmentally friendly, photoconduction and non-linear optics response. Bismuth trisulfide is widely used in solar cell, photoelectric diode array and infrared spectroscopy.
Bi2S3 is also raw material for other bismuth compounds, easily cutting steel and micro-electronics.
