MoS2 nanoparticles grown on graphene: an advanced catalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction

Advanced materials for electrocatalytic and photoelectrochemical water splitting are central to the area of renewable energy. In this work, we developed a selective solvothermal synthesis of MoS(2) nanoparticles on reduced graphene oxide (RGO) sheets suspended in solution. The resulting MoS(2)/RGO hybrid material possessed nanoscopic few-layer MoS(2) structures with an abundance of exposed edges stacked onto graphene, in strong contrast to large aggregated MoS(2) particles grown freely in solution without GO. The MoS(2)/RGO hybrid exhibited superior electrocatalytic activity in the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) relative to other MoS(2) catalysts. A Tafel slope of ～41 mV/decade was measured for MoS(2) catalysts in the HER for the first time; this exceeds by far the activity of previous MoS(2) catalysts and results from the abundance of catalytic edge sites on the MoS(2) nanoparticles and the excellent electrical coupling to the underlying graphene network. The ～41 mV/decade Tafel slope suggested the Volmer-Heyrovsky mechanism for the MoS(2)-catalyzed HER, with electrochemical desorption of hydrogen as the rate-limiting step.

Ionic-liquid-mediated active-site control of MoS2 for the electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction

The layered crystal MoS(2) has been proposed as an alternative to noble metals as the electrocatalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). However, the activity of this catalyst is limited by the number of available edge sites. It was previously shown that, by using an imidazolium ionic liquid as synthesis medium, nanometre-size crystal layers of MoS(2) can be prepared which exhibit a very high number of active edge sites as well as a de-layered morphology, both of which contribute to HER electrocatalytic activity. Herein, it is examined how to control these features synthetically by using a range of ionic liquids as synthesis media. Non-coordinating ILs with a planar heterocyclic cation produced MoS(2) with the de-layered morphology, which was subsequently shown to be highly advantageous for HER electrocatalytic activity. The results furthermore suggest that the crystallinity, and in turn the catalytic activity, of the MoS(2) layers can be improved by employing an IL with specific solvation properties. These results provide the basis for a synthetic strategy for increasing the HER electrocatalytic activity of MoS(2) by tuning its crystal properties, and thus improving its potential for use in hydrogen production technologies.     

Surface modification studies of edge-oriented molybdenum sulfide nanosheets

We have synthesized edge-oriented MoS2 nanosheets by the evaporation of a single source precursor based on Mo(IV)-tetrakis(diethylaminodithiocarbomato). The surface chemistry of the MoS2 nanosheets has been studied in order to evaluate the chemical reactivities of the basal planes and edges. By irradiating the MoS2 nanosheet with a scanning infrared laser, micron-scale lithographical structures can be created due to laser-induced oxidation of MoS2 to form nanocrystalline MoO3. Preferential reactivities of the MoS2 basal edges in an electrochemical environment and during vapor phase deposition have been demonstrated. Functionalization of the basal plane with 1-pyrene acetic acid allows the immobilization of DNA and immunoglobins on the MoS2 basal plane.     

Structural Transformation of SnS2 to SnS by Mo Doping Produces Electro/Photocatalyst for Hydrogen Production

SnS and SnS₂ are layered semiconductors, with potential promising properties for electro- and photocatalytic hydrogen (H₂) production. The vast knowledge in preparation and modification of layered structures was still not employed successfully in this system to fully maximize its potential. Here, the first report of structural transformation of SnS₂ into SnS with Mo-doping as a bifunctional catalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is reported. The structural phase transition optimized the properties of the material, providing a more delicate morphology with additional catalytic sites. The electrochemical studies showed overpotential of 377 mV at 10 mA cm⁻² for HER with Tafel slopes of 100 mV dec⁻¹ in 0.5 m H₂SO₄ for 10 % Mo-SnS. The same structure acts as an efficient photocatalyst in the generation of H₂ from water under visible illumination with rate of 0.136 mmol g⁻¹ h⁻¹ of H₂, which is 20 times higher than pristine SnS₂ under visible light.     

Molybdenum disulfide nanowires and nanoribbons by electrochemical/chemical synthesis

Molybdenum disulfide nanowires and nanoribbons have been synthesized by a two-step, electrochemical/chemical synthetic method. In the first step, MoO(x) wires (a mixture of MoO(2) and MoO(3)) were electrodeposited size-selectively by electrochemical step-edge decoration on a highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) surface. Then, MoO(x) precursor wires were converted to MoS(2) by exposure to H(2)S either at 500-700 degrees C, producing "low-temperature" or LT MoS(2) nanowires that were predominantly 2H phase, or above 800 degrees C producing "high-temperature" or HT MoS(2) ribbons that were predominantly 3R phase. The majority of these MoS(2) wires and ribbons were more than 50 microm in length and were organized into parallel arrays containing hundreds of wires or ribbons. MoS(2) nanostructures were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning and transmission electron microscopy, selected area electron diffraction, X-ray diffraction, UV-visible absorption spectrometry, and Raman spectroscopy. HT and LT MoS(2) nanowires were structurally distinct: LT MoS(2) wires were hemicylindrical in shape and nearly identical in diameter to the MoO(x) precursor wires from which they were derived. LT MoS(2) wires were polycrystalline, and the internal structure consisted of many interwoven, multilayer strands of MoS(2); HT MoS(2) ribbons were 50-800 nm in width and 3-100 nm thick, composed of planar crystallites of 3R-MoS(2). These layers grew in van der Waals contact with the HOPG surface so that the c-axis of the 3R-MoS(2) unit cell was oriented perpendicular to the plane of the graphite surface. Arrays of MoS(2) wires and ribbons could be cleanly separated from the HOPG surface and transferred to glass for electrical and optical characterization. Optical absorption measurements of HT MoS(2) nanoribbons reveal a direct gap near 1.95 eV and two exciton peaks, A1 and B1, characteristic of 3R-MoS(2). These exciton peaks shifted to higher energy by up to 80 meV as the wire thickness was decreased to 7 nm (eleven MoS(2) layers). The energy shifts were proportional to 1/ L( parallel)(2), and the effective masses were calculated. Current versus voltage curves for both LT and HT MoS(2) nanostructures were probed as a function of temperature from -33 degrees C to 47 degrees C. Conduction was ohmic and mainly governed by the grain boundaries residing along the wires. The thermal activation barrier was found to be related to the degree of order of the crystallites and can be tuned from 126 meV for LT nanowires to 26 meV for HT nanoribbons.     

MoS2 hierarchical hollow cubic cages assembled by bilayers: one-step synthesis and their electrochemical hydrogen storage properties

三维二硫化钼/还原氧化石墨烯气凝胶用作宏观可见光催化剂

近年来,光催化技术在解决环境污染和能源短缺方面展现出巨大潜力.二硫化钼(MoS2)作为一种二维层状光催化材料受到广泛关注.MoS2具有可调的带隙(1.2–1.9 eV)、低的成本和高的存储量,是一种可替代铂的理想助催化剂.然而,MoS2本身光催化活性较低.理论和实验已经证明,MoS2只有暴露的边缘具有催化活性,并且MoS2的光生电子-空穴对容易复合,导致其光催化效率低.增加暴露的活性边缘以及有效分离电子-空穴对是提高MoS2光催化活性的关键.而石墨烯气凝胶是一种理想的催化剂载体,其高比表面积和高空隙率可以有效提高催化剂利用率.同时,其高导电性可以促进光生电子-空穴对分离.因此,将MoS2负载到石墨烯气凝胶上制备宏观可回收光催化材料具有广阔的应用前景.然而,目前尚未见到有关MoS2/石墨烯气凝胶光催化产氢以及还原Cr(VI)的报道.本文以钼酸铵为钼源,硫脲为硫源和还原剂,同时加入氧化石墨烯及其还原剂氨水,通过一步水热法制备出二硫化钼/还原氧化石墨烯(MoS2/RGO)水凝胶.最后通过冷冻干燥得到MoS2/RGO气凝胶.经光催化测试发现其产氢达到38.9μmol/g,光还原Cr(VI)达到92%,明显高于MoS2粉体.采用X射线衍射(XRD)、扫描电镜(SEM)、透射电镜(TEM)、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)、紫外-可见-近红外吸收光谱(UV-Vis-NIR)及红外光谱(FTIR)等手段研究了其光催化性能提高的原因.XRD测试显示,过量的NH4+离子插入到MoS2层与层之间增加了(002)面的晶面间距;SEM观察到在形成气凝胶后,MoS2从粉末的片状转变成花状,这是因为氧化石墨烯上的含氧官能团促进MoS2成核同时限制其生长导致的;TEM观察到MoS2上存在大量的脱节和扭曲,这是由于过量硫脲阻碍了MoS2晶体的取向生长而产生缺陷;XPS发现,除了形成MoS2之外,还形成了MoO2,同时大量的暴露边缘导致不饱和硫产生;FTIR表明MoS2与RGO之间通过氢键链接在一起;UV-Vis-NIR吸收光谱显示,MoS2/RGO气凝胶在可见光区具有很强的吸收,这是黑色的RGO以及光在花状结构的不断反射共同作用导致的.综合以上结果,我们提出了MoS2/RGO光催化性能增强的机理.首先,三维的气凝胶网状结构以及花状结构的MoS2所带来的高比表面积(599.7 m2/g)使得材料对H+和Cr(VI)吸附量增加;其次,黑色的RGO以及入射光在花状结构层片间的不断反射增加了MoS2/RGO气凝胶对可见光的吸收;最后,RGO本身的高导电性促进了光生电子-空穴有效分离,电子通过RGO快速转移到材料表面参与光催化反应.因此,将MoS2负载在RGO上可提高光催化效率.另外,低密度的MoS2/RGO气凝胶(56.1 mg/cm3)可以有效吸附有机溶剂且容易回收.综上所述,本文制备的MoS2/RGO气凝胶光催化材料在环境与能源方面表现出潜在的应用前景.
