Abstract
MoS2 can be used for piezoresistive sensors because of its excellent mechanical and electrical properties. Herein, MoS2 nanoparticles with sulfur vacancies synergistically coupled with grain clusters to boost piezoresistive properties are fabricated. Moreover, we have demonstrated that they can be regulated efficiently for gauge factor (GF) from 2.97 to 9.99. In particular, the MoS2 nanoparticles with sulfur vacancies of 31.8% and grain cluster of 29.6 nm at the annealing temperature of 500 °C are compatible with synergistic optimization. The abundant sulfur vacancies provide many free electrons as carriers, benefiting the electron transport capability, and the conductive channels formed by the larger grain clusters endow structural stability and significant piezoresistive properties of the nanoparticles. This work demonstrates the promise of MoS2 nanoparticles as novel piezoresistive advanced materials.
