Title: | Synthesis and characterization of vertically standing MoS2 nanosheets | Authors: | Li, H Wu, H Yuan, S Qian, H |
Issue Date: | 2016 | Source: | Scientific reports, 18 2016, v. 6, no. , p. 1-9 | Abstract: | Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) has been attracting much attentions due to its excellent electrical and optical properties. We report here the synthesis of large-scale and uniform MoS2 nanosheets with vertically standing morphology using chemical vapor deposition method. TEM observations clearly reveal the growth mechanism of these vertical structures. It is suggested that the vertical structures are caused by the compression and extrusion between MoS2 islands. More importantly, the vertical morphology of two dimensional (2D) materials hold many promising potential applications. We demonstrate here the as-synthesized vertically standing MoS2 nanosheets could be used for hydrogen evolution reaction, where the exchange current density is about 70 times of bulk MoS2. The field emission performance of vertically standing MoS2 were also improved due to the abundantly exposed edges. | Publisher: | Nature Publishing Group | Journal: | Scientific reports | EISSN: | 2045-2322 | DOI: | 10.1038/srep21171 | Rights: | This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.
