PbCuSbS3 nanocrystals were synthesized by a colloidal synthesis route and characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and electron diffraction spectroscopy (EDS). PbCuSbS3 particle sizes of 5, 150, and 200 nit were obtained by adjusting the reaction time., The optical band gap, thermal stability, :heat capacity, and magnetic susceptibility of PbCuSbS3 were also investigated. PbCuSbS3 is diamagnetic with an optical band :gap of 1.31 eV and a Debye temperature of 157 K. This study aims to expand and broaden our knowledge of PbCuSbS3 in light of the recent interest in multinary chalcogenides for energy-related applications.
