Enhanced Electrochemical Performance of Self-Assembled Nanoflowers of MoS₂ Nanosheets as Supercapacitor Electrode Materials.

ABSTRACT: As supercapacitor electrode materials, their structures, including specific surface area, instability, and interconnection, determine the electrochemical performances (specific capacitance, cycle stability, and rate performance). In this study, 1T-MoS₂ nanosheets were self-assembled into nanoflowers via a one-pot facile hydrothermal reaction. The nanoflowers retain the excellent electrical conductive performance and the feature of inherent high specific surface area of the nanosheets. For the sheets are interconnected to each other in flower structure, the structure is more stable and the charges are more easily transferred. Thus, compared to the nanosheet electrode, the nanoflower electrode shows the remarkable advantage when used as the electrode of the energy-storage device,
