Abstract

The intense environment of an electric arc has been used to create MoS2core–shell particles. Instead of running the arc in a vacuum chamber under reducedpressure conditions, an arc discharge in water was employed. The arc was run betweena carbon cathode and a Mo hollow rod anode whose interior was packed with MoS2powder. High-resolution electron microscopy and image simulationshave been used to characterize the structure of the resultant materialwhich was seen to consist of agglomerates of polyhedral MoS2cages with filled cores. A correlation between the growth conditions and theobserved nanostructure is presented.
