Graphene-like MoS₂ Nanosheets on Carbon Fabrics as High-Performance Binder-free Electrodes for Supercapacitors and Li-Ion Batteries.

ABSTRACT: Two-dimensional layer-structure materials are now of great interest in energy storage devices, owing to their graphene-like structure and high theoretical capacity. Herein, graphene-like molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂) nanosheets were uniformly grown on carbon fabrics by using a hydrothermal method. They were evaluated as binder-free electrodes for Li-ion batteries (LIBs) and supercapacitors. As expected, long cycling life and high capacity/capacitance are achieved. When used as self-standing electrodes for LIBs, they deliver a high area capacity of ∼0.5 mAh/cm² even after 400 cycles and remarkable rate capability in the charge/discharge potential range of 1-3 V. In addition, a three-dimensional integrated electrode of the MoS₂ nanosheet exhibits a high capacit
