Summary: This study presents a Raman investigation of MoS2 powders and MoS2 individual layers functionalized with organic molecules. It is found that the functionalized MoS2 powders are oxidized into MoO3 upon increasing temperature, while the mechanically exfoliated individual MoS2 layers do not undergo the same transformation. During the covalent functionalization, few-layer MoS2 undergoes a partial transition from the 2H to the 1T' crystallographic phase.

Summary: Metallic-TMdCs catalysts have highly reactive basal-plane but are unstable, while chemically stable semiconducting-TMdCs show limiting catalytic activity. By dispersing metallic vanadium sulfide in a semiconducting MoS2 film to form V-MoS2 as an efficient catalyst, excellent hydrogen evolution reaction performance is achieved.

Summary: Transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMD) layers are being studied for their potential as electronic devices, but their low chemical activity poses challenges for functionalization. Dative bonding, using the chalcogen nonbonding lone-pair orbitals as electron donors, may overcome these limitations. This study investigates whether S -> P dative bonding can catalyze reactions on the surface of MoS2 and functionalize the sheet. The results show that the bonding facilitates the PH functionalization of MoS2, reducing the activation energy and providing selectivity for future advancements in TMD-based electronics.

Summary: Two-dimensional materials such as graphene and MoS2 have potential applications in energy storage, but their performance is limited by restacking and poor electrical conductivity. In this study, a true composite electrode was formed by chemically modifying graphene to self-assemble with MoS2, resulting in an alternating layer structure. This composite electrode exhibited improved energy storage properties and stability.

Summary: Two-dimensional transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) materials, such as molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), have outstanding electrical properties and atomically thin layered structure, making them a potential main material for future high-performance logic circuits. However, local back-gate-based MoS2 transistors on a silicon substrate can degrade electrical characteristics. The use of buried-gate-based MoS2 transistors, where the gate electrodes are embedded into the silicon substrate, significantly enhances various device parameters and allows for the fabrication of integrated logic circuits.

Summary: Cost-effective electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) that work in a wide pH range are highly desirable. In this study, Mo5N6-MoS2/HCNRs were designed as Mott-Schottky electrocatalysts for efficient pH-universal HER. The constructed Mo5N6-MoS2 heterointerface effectively increased the electrocatalytic activity and water dissociation ability.
