Ionic strength induced electrodeposition of two-dimensional layered MoS 2 nanosheets

Enhanced optical, magnetic and hydrogen evolution reaction properties of Mo1−xNixS2 nanoflakes

“…49 Moreover, it has been also well conrmed that the doping of either transition metals (e.g., Ni or Co) into MoS 2 or transition metals (e.g., Cu or Ni) used as a substrate for MoS 2 could signicantly enhance the HER performance of MoS 2 in both acidic and alkaline mediums. 34,[50][51][52][53] Herein, the incorporation of Ni in the MoS 2 catalyst was found to expose more active sites. Characteristically, in MoS 2 , the Mo edge was shown for its HER catalytic activity, while the S edges were found to be inert.…”

Carbon ene-yne graphyne monolayer as an outstanding anode material for Li/Na ion batteries

“…Graphyne structures involve lattices of benzene rings connected by acetylene bonds [8]. Despite of tremendous successes in the synthesis of various 2D materials, the isolation of fabricated nanosheets from the substrate have remained among the most challenging issues [9][10][11][12][13][14]. Nonetheless, most recently a remarkable experimental advance was accomplished and carbon ene-yne (CEY), a full carbon 2D material was synthesized with different thicknesses from tetraethynylethene by the solvent-phase reaction on the cupper substrate [15].…”

The future of electrochemical deposition: nanomaterial building blocks

“…We have recently developed different approaches, which we term "from nano to nano" [6][7][8][9][10][11]. The basic idea is to cause the destabilization of nanomaterials dispersed in a solution as a result of applying potential or current.…”
