Fig. 1: Schematic representation of the nanocomposition and crystal structure of Bi2SeS2.

a Summary of previously reported nanocomposites classified by the composition and crystal structure of their nanoinclusion and matrix. Most reported nanocomposites are hetero-composition and homo-structure (heC-hoS) or hetero-composition and hetero-structure (heC-heS). b Structure and schematic illustration of transport mechanism inside Pnma Bi2SeS2 - Pnnm Bi2SeS2 hoC-heS nanocomposite. c–d Crystal structure of Bi2SeS2 Pnma phase in the ac plane. e–f Crystal structure of Bi2SeS2 Pnnm phase in the ab plane.
