The crystal structure of MoS$_2$ with strong covalent bonds in plane and weak Van der Waals interactions out gives rise to interesting properties for applications such as solid lubrication, optoelectronics, catalysis, which can be enhanced by transition-metal doping. However, the mechanisms improvement even doped material unclear, we address theoretical calculations. Building on our previous wo...

Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries have attracted widespread attention due to their high theoretical energy density. However, practical application is still hindered by the shuttle effect and sluggish conversion of lithium polysulfides (LiPSs). Herein, monodisperse molybdenum (Mo) nanoparticles embedded onto nitrogen-doped graphene (Mo@N-G) were developed used as a highly efficient electrocatalyst...

Based on the first-principles calculation method density functional theory (DFT), adsorption characteristics intrinsic state graphene Mo-doped adsorbing SF6 its substitute gas decomposition are calculated analyzed....

Molybdenum has several properties that make it attractive as a CMOS gate electrode material. The high melting point (~2610°C) and low coefficient of thermal expansion (5×10/ oC, at 20 oC) are well suited to withstand the thermal processing budgets normally encountered in a CMOS fabrication process. Mo is among the most conductive refractory metals and provides a significant reduction in gate re...

Molybdenum (Mo) doped BiVO₄ was fabricated via a simple electrospun method. Morphology, structure, chemical states and optical properties of the obtained catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), N₂ adsorption-desorptio...

Nonreducible oxides are characterized by large band gaps and are therefore unable to exchange electrons or to form bonds with surface species, explaining their chemical inertness. The insertion of aliovalent dopants alters this situation, as new electronic states become available in the gap that may be involved in charge-transfer processes. Consequently, the adsorption and reactivity pattern of...
