MoS₂-NiO nanocomposite for H₂S sensing at room temperature.

ABSTRACT: The layered 2-D materials, such as molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂), are among the most promising candidates for detecting H₂S gas at very low concentrations. Herein, we have designed a series of novel nanocomposites consisting of MoS₂ and NiO. These materials were synthesized via a simple hydrothermal method. The microstructure and morphology of nanocomposites were studied using different characterization techniques, such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). These nanocomposites were used as gas sensors, and the highest response (6.3) towards 10 ppm
