Hydrogen evolution across nano-Schottky junctions at carbon supported MoS2 catalysts in biphasic liquid systems.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The activities of a series of MoS(2)-based hydrogen evolution catalysts were studied by biphasic reactions monitored by UV/Vis spectroscopy. Carbon supported MoS(2) catalysts performed best due to an abundance of catalytic edge sites and strong electronic coupling of catalyst to support.

Nano-tungsten carbide decorated graphene as co-catalysts for enhanced hydrogen evolution on molybdenum disulfide.
A novel electrocatalyst of layered MoS2 supported on reduced graphene oxide (RGO) decorated with nano-sized tungsten carbide (WC) shows an enhanced catalytic performance in the hydrogen evolution reaction, which could be attributed to the presence of a conductive and electrocatalytically-active nano-WC dispersant and the positive synergistic effect between nano-WC/RGO and layered MoS2.
متن کاملConducting MoS₂ nanosheets as catalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction.
We report chemically exfoliated MoS2 nanosheets with a very high concentration of metallic 1T phase using a solvent free intercalation method. After removing the excess of negative charges from the surface of the nanosheets, highly conducting 1T phase MoS2 nanosheets exhibit excellent catalytic activity toward the evolution of hydrogen with a notably low Tafel slope of 40 mV/dec. By partially o...
متن کاملSwitching mechanism in single-layer molybdenum disulfide transistors: an insight into current flow across Schottky barriers.
In this article, we study the properties of metal contacts to single-layer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) crystals, revealing the nature of switching mechanism in MoS2 transistors. On investigating transistor behavior as contact length changes, we find that the contact resistivity for metal/MoS2 junctions is defined by contact area instead of contact width. The minimum gate dependent transfer leng...
متن کاملGate-Tunable Atomically Thin Lateral MoS2 Schottky Junction Patterned by Electron Beam.
Among atomically thin two-dimensional (2D) materials, molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is attracting considerable attention because of its direct bandgap in the 2H-semiconducting phase. On the other hand, a 1T-metallic phase has been revealed, bringing complementary application. Recently, thanks to top-down fabrication using electron beam (EB) irradiation techniques, in-plane 1T-metal/2H-semiconduct...
متن کاملMolybdenum Loading Effects on the Physico-Chemical Properties and Performance of Carbon Nanotubes Supported Alkalized MoS2 Catalysts for Higher Alcohols Synthesis
An extensive study of Higher Alcohols Synthesis (HAS) from syngas using alkalized MoS2 catalysts supported on Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) is reported. Up to 30wt.% of Mo and 8wt.% K are added to the CNTs by impregnation method. The catalysts were characterized by different methods and the performance of the catalysts was assessed in a micro-reactor. TEM images showed that mo...
