Tuning the 1T'/2H phases in W_xMo_1-xSe₂ nanosheets.

ABSTRACT: Controlling materials' morphology, crystal phase and chemical composition at the atomic scale has become central in materials research. Wet chemistry approaches have great potential in directing the material crystallisation process to achieve tuneable chemical compositions as well as to target specific crystal phases. Herein, we report the compositional and crystal phase tuneability achieved in the quasi-binary W_xMo_1-xSe₂ system with chemical and crystal phase mixing down to the atomic level. A series of W_xMo_1-xSe₂ solid solutions in the form of nanoflowers with atomically thin petals were obtained via a direct colloidal reaction by systematically varying the ratios of transition metal prec
