Molybdenum sulfides—efficient and viable materials for electro - and photoelectrocatalytic hydrogen evolution

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the electrocatalytic properties of a highly conductive MoS2 hybrid material, and demonstrate that the origin of the HER activity is closely related to the amount of edges in the layered MOS2.
Journal ArticleDOI

Amorphous molybdenum sulfides as hydrogen evolution catalysts

TL;DR: The amorphous molybdenum sulfide film catalyst has been integrated onto a copper(I) oxide photocathode for photoelectrochemical hydrogen evolution and efficiently extracts the excited electrons to give an impressive photocurrent density at 0 V vs RHE.

Graphene‐Like MoS2/Graphene Composites: Cationic Surfactant‐Assisted Hydrothermal Synthesis and Electrochemical Reversible Storage of Lithium

TL;DR: It is found that the layer number of MoS2 sheets decreases with increasing CTAB concentration, and the exceptional electrochemical performance of GL-MoS2 /G composites for reversible Li(+) storage could be attributed to an effective integration of GLs2 sheets and graphene that maximizes the synergistic interaction between them.

Charge Transfer in the MoS2/Carbon Nanotube Composite

TL;DR: In this article, a composite MoS2/carbon nanotubes (CNT) material has been produced by hydrothermal decomposition of a mixture of multiwall CNTs and a water solution of ammonium molybdate and thiourea and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy revealed a downshift of C 1s peak of the composite as compared to the pristine CNT sample that was related to charge transfer between the components.

Exceptionally high Young's modulus observed for individual carbon nanotubes

TL;DR: In this article, the amplitude of the intrinsic thermal vibrations of isolated carbon nanotubes was measured in the transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and it was shown that they have exceptionally high Young's moduli, in the terapascal (TPa) range.

Theory of self-assembly of hydrocarbon amphiphiles into micelles and bilayers

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple theory is developed that accounts for many of the observed physical properties of micelles, both globular and rod-like, and of bilayer vesicles composed of ionic or zwitterionic amphiphiles.

The transition metal dichalcogenides discussion and interpretation of the observed optical, electrical and structural properties

J.A. Wilson, +1 more
- 01 May 1969 - 
TL;DR: The transition metal dichalcogenides are about 60 in number as discussed by the authors, and two-thirds of these assume layer structures and can be cleaved down to less than 1000 A and are then transparent in the region of direct band-to-band transitions.

Bending and buckling of carbon nanotubes under large strain

TL;DR: It is shown that multiwalled carbon nanotubes can be bent repeatedly through large angles using the tip of an atomic force microscope, without undergoing catastrophic failure.
