Spontaneous exfoliation and tailoring of MoS2 in mixed solvents.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Spontaneous exfoliation of MoS2 is achieved in H2O2-NMP mixed solvents with a yield of over 60 wt%, operated under mild conditions. H2O2-prompted sheet-tailoring effect induces a size evolution of MoS2 nanosheets from micro-scale to nano-scale. Furthermore, the concurrent dissolution also affords an approach to introduce structural defects in the nanosheets.

Exfoliated MoS2 in Water without Additives
Many solution processing methods of exfoliation of layered materials have been studied during the last few years; most of them are based on organic solvents or rely on surfactants and other funtionalization agents. Pure water should be an ideal solvent, however, it is generally believed, based on solubility theories that stable dispersions of water could not be achieved and systematic studies a...
متن کاملUnexpected optical limiting properties from MoS2 nanosheets modified by a semiconductive polymer.
Direct solvent exfoliation of bulk MoS2 with the assistance of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) produces a novel two-dimensional organic/inorganic semiconductor hetero-junction. The obtained P3HT-MoS2 nanohybrid exhibits unexpected optical limiting properties in contrast to the saturated absorption behavior of both P3HT and MoS2, showing potential in future photoelectric applications.
متن کاملHigh-Yield Preparation and Electrochemical Properties of Few-Layer MoS2 Nanosheets by Exfoliating Natural Molybdenite Powders Directly via a Coupled Ultrasonication-Milling Process
Cost-effective and scalable preparation of two-dimensional (2D) molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) has been the bottleneck that limits their applications. This paper reports a novel coupled ultrasonication-milling (CUM) process to exfoliate natural molybdenite powders to achieve few-layer MoS2 (FL-MoS2) nanosheets in the solvent of N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) with polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) molecules...
متن کاملControlling the metal to semiconductor transition of MoS2 and WS2 in solution.
Lithiation-exfoliation produces single to few-layered MoS2 and WS2 sheets dispersible in water. However, the process transforms them from the pristine semiconducting 2H phase to a distorted metallic phase. Recovery of the semiconducting properties typically involves heating of the chemically exfoliated sheets at elevated temperatures. Therefore, it has been largely limited to sheets deposited o...
متن کاملInfluence of ultrasonic power and sonication time on the thickness of MoS2 2D nanoflakes, prepared via sonophysics technique
In this research, MoS2 nanoflakes were prepared via the Liquid Phase Exfoliation method by utilizing an ultrasonic probe. We changed the power of our sonicator and the sonication time to investigate their effects on the thickness of obtained flakes. Our findings from UV-Visible Spectra and the SEM images have indicated that the minimum thickness for these samples has been acquired at the power ...
