Figure 1.
Energy diagrams for FeS, ZnS, and MnS as potential donors of photo-excited electrons (left column) and for the biologically relevant electron acceptors (right column). The Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital (HOMO) level in the valence bands of each semiconductor is shown by a darker color than the respective Lowest Unoccupied Molecular Orbital (LUMO) level in the conduction band. The picture is based on data from references [72,99,122,262,264].
