Abstract
Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanoparticles have been successfully synthesized using Chemical Vapour Deposition (CVD) technique. Inorganic precursors have been used to develop MoS2 nanoparticles. A detailed study has been carried out to investigate the influence of process parameters on morphological structure of MoS2 nanoparticles. The nanoparticles have been characterized by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and X-ray Diffraction (XRD) technique. Investigations revealed that the temperature plays an important role in obtaining desired morphology of MoS2 nanostructures. Nanostructures of different morphologies like nanoparticles, nanorods and nanoplate have been synthesized at different temperatures. It was observed that nanopartciles of different morphologies can be synthesized at 800 °C itself using CVD technique. The dimensions of nanoparticles synthesized have been analyzed using SEM as well as Scherrer’s equation using XRD results. The results of XRD and SEM are in close agreement with each other.
