Hydrothermal and Electrochemical Synthesis of MoS2 Nanoparticles and Their Characterization

The features of the hydrothermal synthesis (molybdenum precursor – Na₂MoO₄, sulfur precursor – thioacetamide, temperature – 220°C) and of the electrochemical one (anodic formation of nanoparticles from MoS₂ single crystals at electrolysis in ionic liquid) are described. The X-ray fluorescence, optical absorption, and photoluminescence spectroscopy were applied for their characterization.
