Near‐IR‐responsive semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) of Ag 8 SnS 6 composed of low‐toxic elements are newly developed by the thermal decomposition of precursors in oleylamine. The size of Ag 8 SnS 6 NCs can be controlled from 6 to 13 nm by increasing reaction temperature. The photosensitization of ZnO rod electrodes with Ag 8 SnS 6 NCs is much more efficient than those with conventional Ag‐based NCs such as Ag 2 S.
