Tin selenide

Tin selenide (SnSe) is a lead-free semiconductor of tin and selenium, a leading thermoelectric material since single crystals reached ZT 2.6 at 923 K in 2014.

Tin selenide thermoelectric

Tin selenide (SnSe) is a layered semiconductor used to convert heat directly into electricity, holding some of the highest thermoelectric figure-of-merit values of any bulk material.

Tin selenide thermoelectrics

Tin selenide thermoelectrics are devices and materials based on tin selenide (SnSe), whose ultralow lattice thermal conductivity yields record figures of merit; stability over repeated cycles remains unsolved.

Tin Star (TV series)

Tin Star, a British crime drama by Rowan Joffé for Sky Atlantic and Prime Video (2017-2020), stars Tim Roth as police chief Jim Worth in the Canadian Rockies town of Little Big Bear; three seasons, 25 episodes, ending with Tin Star: Liverpool.

Tin sulfide

Tin sulfide (SnS) is a layered semiconductor compound of tin and sulfur whose earth-abundant, non-toxic elements make it a leading candidate for thermoelectric power generation, cooling, solar cells, and optoelectronics.

Tin sulfide thermoelectrics

Tin sulfide thermoelectrics are thermoelectric materials based on tin(II) sulfide (SnS), a lead-free, layered semiconductor pursued as a cheap, abundant alternative to tin selenide for heat-to-electricity conversion.

Tin telluride thermoelectrics

Tin telluride thermoelectrics are thermoelectric materials based on SnTe, a narrow-bandgap semiconductor studied as a lead-free alternative to lead telluride, converting heat to electricity at 500 to 900 K.

Tin tetrachloride

Tin tetrachloride (tin(IV) chloride, stannic chloride, SnCl₄) is a colorless fuming liquid, first prepared in 1605, used as a Lewis acid catalyst and for tin oxide coatings on glass.

Tin Tin Deo

Tin Tin Deo, also written Tintindeo, is a salsa club in Cali, Colombia, founded in 1987, named for an Andy Harlow track, and declared an emblematic rumba site in 2021.

Tin Toy

Tin Toy is Pixar's 1988 five-minute computer-animated short by John Lasseter, in which one-man-band toy Tinny flees baby Billy; it won the 1989 Best Animated Short Oscar, the first computer-animated film to do so, and seeded Toy Story.

Tin Ujević

Tin Ujević, full name Augustin, was a Croatian poet, essayist, and translator born in Vrgorac in 1891, regarded as one of the greatest Croatian poets of the twentieth century.

Tin whisker

A tin whisker is a hair-like crystalline filament of tin that grows spontaneously from tin-plated surfaces on electronic components, bridging closely spaced conductors and causing short circuits that have destroyed satellites.

Tin whistle

Tin whistle, also called penny whistle or Irish feadóg: a six-holed diatonic fipple flute of Irish traditional music, mass-produced by Robert Clarke in 19th-century Manchester, played in two octaves by overblowing.

Tin Woodman

Tin Woodman, also Tin Man, Nick Chopper: Baum's 1900 Oz character, a woodchopper rebuilt in tin after the Wicked Witch of the East enchanted his axe; Emperor of the Winkies, subject of the 1918 novel The Tin Woodman of Oz.

Tin-lead mixed perovskites

Tin-lead mixed perovskites are halide perovskite semiconductors mixing tin and lead ions, whose tunable 1.2–1.6 eV bandgap suits single-junction cells and all-perovskite tandems, reaching 24.13% and 26.4% certified efficiency.

Tin-lead perovskite solar cells

Tin-lead perovskite solar cells are photovoltaic devices with a mixed tin-lead perovskite absorber of roughly 1.2 eV bandgap, used as the bottom subcell in all-perovskite tandems.

Tin-vacancy and germanium-vacancy color centers

Tin-vacancy (SnV) and germanium-vacancy (GeV) color centers are optically active defects in diamond, split-vacancy structures used as spin qubits and single-photon sources for quantum networking.

Tin-vacancy center

The tin-vacancy center (SnV) is a color center in diamond with a tin atom between two carbon vacancies, serving as a spin-photon interface for quantum networks.

Tin-vacancy centers in diamond

The tin-vacancy center (SnV) is a color center in diamond, a tin atom sitting between two vacancies, with optically addressable spin states for quantum information processing.

Tin-vacancy qubit

The tin-vacancy qubit is a quantum bit built from the negatively charged tin-vacancy color center in diamond, a group-IV defect pursued as a spin-photon interface for quantum networks.

Tin(II) chloride

Tin(II) chloride, also known as stannous chloride (SnCl₂), is an inorganic tin compound best known as a strong reducing agent and the food additive E 512.

Tin(IV) chloride

Tin(IV) chloride, also called tin tetrachloride or stannic chloride, is a covalent tin compound that is a colorless fuming liquid used as a Lewis acid catalyst.

Tin(IV) oxide

Tin(IV) oxide (SnO₂), also called tin dioxide or stannic oxide, is a white crystalline oxide of tin that occurs as the mineral cassiterite, the world's predominant ore of tin.

Tinā
