Abstract
We have prepared novel nanohybrid Li2xMn1−xPS3/GO films consisting of graphene oxide (GO) and exfoliated MnPS3 nanosheets via an easy mixing protocol at room temperature. These films were investigated by SEM and AFM, as well as XRD, Raman and XPS spectroscopies, obtaining information about the nature of the interaction between MnPS3 and GO. In particular, the dark colour of the nanocomposite film and, more to the point, the analysis of (i) the C1s core level XPS spectra, (ii) the interlayer spacing obtained by XRD measurements and (iii) the increment in the intensity ratio ID/IG of the two bands typical of the carbon region of GO Raman spectra, suggest that a partial reduction of GO can be obtained right upon intercalation into Li2xMn1−xPS3.
