Ultrapure Molybdenum Disulfide Shows Enhanced Catalysis for Hydrogen Evolution over Impurities-Doped Counterpart

The development of electrocatalysts to meet the requirements of renewable energy applications has seen much attention placed on transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMD) materials owing to their promising properties. In particular, the strategy of atomic doping has garnered some success in tuning the electronic properties and harnessing the vast potential that TMDs can offer in the catalysis …

Pristine Basal-and Edge-Plane-Oriented Molybdenite MoS2 Exhibiting Highly Anisotropic Properties

The layered structure of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is structurally similar to that of graphite, with individual sheets strongly covalently bonded within but held together through weak van der Waals interactions. This results in two distinct surfaces of MoS2: basal and edge planes. The edge plane was theoretically predicted to be more electroactive than the basal …

Chemical Optimization for Simultaneous Voltammetric Detection of Molybdenum and Silver Nanoparticles in Aqueous Buffer Solutions

Simultaneous acquisition of redox signals from different types of metal nanoparticles (NPs) in a multiplexing system requires a good separation in redox potential from each component for successful identification. The appearance of a single distinct peak for each NP type is also preferred. Here, we report variations in the electrochemical nature of molybdenum (Mo) and …
