In our previous work, we report the synthesis of wurtzite Cu2ZnSnS4 nanoleaves.1 On page 8115 in the section 2.2 Synthesis of Sn(dedc)4 and Cu(EtXn)2 precursors, we wrote:

For the precursor Cu(EtXn)2, Na(dedc) and SnCl4 were replaced with Na(EtXn) and CuCl2, respectively.

The synthesized precursor Cu(EtXn)2 should be Cu(EtXn).2 The by-product dixanthogen dissolves in ethanol solution. In the following synthetic section, the irregular nanocrystals were obtained by copper ethylxanthate as copper source. This correction does not affect the results or conclusions in this article. The following sections of the article text have to be corrected from “Cu(EtXn)2” to “Cu(EtXn)”: page 8115, line 45 and 50; page 8118, line 20 and 24.
