General description

Indium(III) acetate is a white crystalline water-soluble solid that decomposes to indium oxide upon heating. It is used as a catalyst in intermolecular and intramolecular acyl substitution reactions. It is also widely used as CVD precursor to prepare indium oxide thin oxide.

Application

Indium(III) acetate can be used:
  • As a precursor to fabricate In2S3 thin films via chemical spray pyrolysis. These films are used as electron transport layers in highly efficient perovskite solar cells.
  • To prepare indium arsenide quantum dots which are infrared emitting nanomaterials used in optoelectronic and biomedical applications.
