Enhanced lithium storage for MoS2-based composites via a vacancy-assisted method

Defect engineering, which is a concept applied to exploit the potential of a given material fully, is also considered when designing materials for energy-related applications. In general, defect engineering focuses on the direct chemical or physical changes caused by defects through varied mechanisms. In this study, sulfur vacancies on the surface of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanoflakes are created easily via hydrogen-etching and are employed...
