Growth of ‘W’ doped molybdenum disulfide on graphene transferred molybdenum substrate

Piezoelectricity in two dimensions: Graphene vs. molybdenum disulfide

Carbon doped molybdenum disulfide nanosheets stabilized on graphene for the hydrogen evolution reaction with high electrocatalytic ability.

Fabricating a cost effective hydrogen evolution reaction catalyst without using precious metal elements is in crucial demand for environmentally-benign energy production. In this work, the thin and edge-rich molybdenum disulfide nanosheets, with carbon doped in the interlayers and decorated on graphene, were developed by a facile solvothermal process. The as-synthesized nanohybrids exhibited hi...

Ultrafast response of monolayer molybdenum disulfide photodetectors

The strong light emission and absorption exhibited by single atomic layer transitional metal dichalcogenides in the visible to near-infrared wavelength range make them attractive for optoelectronic applications. In this work, using two-pulse photovoltage correlation technique, we show that monolayer molybdenum disulfide photodetector can have intrinsic response times as short as 3 ps implying p...

Origin of Improved Optical Quality of Monolayer Molybdenum Disulfide Grown on Hexagonal Boron Nitride Substrate.

Monolayer MoS2 is synthesized on hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) flakes with a simple, high-yield method. Monolayer MoS2 on h-BN exhibits improved optical quality. Combining the theoretical and experimental analysis, it is concluded that the enhanced photoluminescence and Raman intensities of monolayer MoS2 probably originate from the relatively weak doping effect from the h-BN substrate rather ...

Molybdenum Disulfide in Lubricant Applications – a Review

Molybdenum disulfide is one of the best known solid lubricants, and although it originally gained popularity in aerospace and military applications, it is now commonly found in a variety of lubrication applications. It is widely used in greases and specialized grease-like products known as pastes, in fluid lubricants such as automotive and industrial gear oils, in solid film lubricants includin...
