Graphical abstract: Display Omitted Highlights: ► CuInS{sub 2} nanoparticles were synthesized by ultrasonic assisted method. ► CuInS{sub 2} nanoparticles obtained after annealing at 350 °C for 1 h. ► The effect of some parameters including ultrasonic was investigated. -- Abstract: This paper reports on the synthesis of CuInS{sub 2} nanostructure via an ultrasonic assisted method by employing different sulfur source. Morphology, structure and composition of the obtained products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), scanning electron microscope (SEM), infrared (IR) spectrum, and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. The effects of ultrasonic irradiation, power and time of irradiation, surfactant, and type of copper source were investigated.
