Electrochemical Exfoliation of MoS2 Crystal for Hydrogen Electrogeneration

Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have recently emerged within the group of 2D materials due to their electrical, catalytic and optical properties significantly enhanced and useful when down-sized to single layer. In particular, MoS2 has attracted much attention due to its semiconducting nature with a useful band gap when present as single layer, the enhanced photoluminescence, …

Exfoliation of Layered Topological Insulators Bi2Se3 and Bi2Te3 via Electrochemistry

Among layered materials, topological insulators such as Bi2Se3 and Bi2Te3 are lately attracting much attention due to particular electronic properties and, especially with Bi2Te3, excellent thermoelectric properties. Methods of preparation of few-layered nanosheets of Bi2Se3 and Bi2Te3 range from the bottom-up chemical vapor deposition or hydrothermal synthesis from oxide precursors to the top-down mechanical exfoliation …
