Assessing the role of plasma-engineered acceptor-like intra- and inter-grain boundaries of heterogeneous WS2-WO3 nanosheets for photocurrent characteristics.


ABSTRACT: High-temperature annealing in tungsten disulfide resulted in heterogeneous WS2-WO3 in which intra- (within WS2 and WO3) and inter- (between WS2 and WO3) grain boundaries were observed, which were highly critical for charge transport and recombination. The heterogeneous WS2-WO3 phase was evidenced by observing the coexistence of d-spacing values of 0.26 nm (WS2) and 0.37 nm (WO3) in transmission electron microscopic (TEM) studies. Further systematic high-resolution TEM studies elucidated that intra-grain boundaries separated crystallites within WS2 and WO3, while inter-grain boundaries separated WS2 from WO3. As WS2 and W
