Abstract

Nowadays, it has been challenging to develop novel techniques and synthesis processes for hybrid two-dimensional materials. Hence, this research presents an innovative technique for the fabrication of MoS2-Graphene (MoS2-Gr) hybrid nanostructured materials. The graphene was effectively generated in-situ and incorporated into the interlayer spacing of MoS2, which was synthesized by using a co-precipitation process with diethyl glycol as the solvent, followed by annealing the as-synthesized MoS2 at 800 oC for two hours in an inert atmosphere. The integrated graphene enhanced the width of MoS2 interlayers, exposing a substantial concentration of active edge sites in the hybrid material, according to SEM, XRD, HR-TEM, and other characterizations. This research might lead to the development of viable hybrid structured materials for various applications. In addition, this study outlines a novel advanced approach for creating hybrid 2D nanostructured materials with superior characteristics.
