Herein, we report the successful characterization of sulfur vacancies in ZnS nanoplatelets by in-depth high-field and DNP-enhanced solid-state NMR of 33S and 67Zn nuclei and DFT modeling. This two-dimensional 1 nm-thick nanomaterial was obtained by reacting a dicyclohexyl zinc complex, ZnCy2, with (TMS)2S as the S source under mild conditions (45 °C) in dodecylamine. The joint experimental and theoretical studies on these nanoplatelets evidenced that a large fraction of the Zn and S atoms are located near the surface covered by dodecylamine and that the deviation from stoichiometry (agreeing with energy gap and photoluminescence properties of non-stoichiometric material) is due to sulfur vacancies. Additionally, this work reports the first 33S DNP-NMR spectrum reported in the literature alongside several ultra-high-field 33S and 67Zn solid-state NMR spectra.
