Thiosilicate
In
tetrahedral in all thiosilicates and sulfur is bridging or terminal. Formally such materials are derived from silicon disulfide in analogy to the relationship between silicon dioxide and silicates. Thiosilicates are typically encountered as colorless solids. They are characteristically sensitive to hydrolysis. They are from the class of chalcogenidotetrelates

The
thiogermanates are also of interest for infrared optics, since they only absorb low frequency IR modes.[3]
