(a) Illustration of atomic mass of metals with trivalent ions. Darker colors mean heavier atomic mass, and the radii of the circles reflect of their trivalent ions. Top scheme shows phonons’ group velocity declines when meeting with heavier atoms. (b) Illustration of SnS crystal structure and changes after charge balance codoping, in which gray, yellow, purple, and green balls refers to Sn2+, S2−, Bi3+, and Ag+, respectively.
