Abstract

One-dimensional (1D) ternary transition metal chalcogenides (M<sub>2</sub>X<sub>3</sub>Y<sub>8</sub>) have emerged as a promising class of materials for advanced electronic and optoelectronic applications. This Mini-Review comprehensively explores recent advancements in their synthesis, characterization, and integration into functional devices. The studied nanowires display exceptional performance as semiconductor 1D nanostructures in photodetection, field-effect transistors, and gas sensing. Their unique 1D structure, tunable electronic properties, and high stability make them attractive candidates for future research and development in the field of materials science.
