Time-dependent exfoliation study of MoS₂ for its use as a cathode material in high-performance hybrid supercapacitors.

ABSTRACT: Quick and precise exfoliation of bulk molybdenum sulphide into few layers can bring a quantum leap in the electrochemical performance of this material. Such a cost-effective exfoliation route to obtain few layers of MoS₂ nanosheets with a high mass yield of ∼75% is presented in this study. The electrochemical behaviours of three types of samples, namely pristine MoS₂ and MoS₂ exfoliated for 3 h and 5 h, were compared and the reasons leading to their performance modulation are explained. The performance could be tuned by changing the nature of the electrolytes, as shown using three different electrolytes, i.e. H₂SO₄, Na₂SO₄, and KOH. The electrochemical performance of a supercapacitor device fabricated using
