Highly Active 2D Layered MoS ₂ -rGO Hybrids for Energy Conversion and Storage Applications.

ABSTRACT: The development of efficient materials for the generation and storage of renewable energy is now an urgent task for future energy demand. In this report, molybdenum disulphide hollow sphere (MoS₂-HS) and its reduced graphene oxide hybrid (rGO/MoS₂-S) have been synthesized and explored for energy generation and storage applications. The surface morphology, crystallinity and elemental composition of the as-synthesized materials have been thoroughly analysed. Inspired by the fascinating morphology of the MoS₂-HS and rGO/MoS₂-S materials, the electrochemical performance towards hydrogen evolution and supercapacitor has been demonstrated. The rGO/MoS₂-S shows enhanced gravimetric capacitance values (318 ± 14 Fg^-1) with higher spe
