摘要
A simple synthesis of novel faceted MoS2 nanotubes (NTs) and nanoflowers (NFs) starting from mo denum oxide and thiourea as the sulphur source is reported. The MoS2 nanotubes with the face morphology have not been observed before. Further the as-synthesized MoS2 nanotubes have I internal surface area. The nanostructures have been characterized by a variety of electron microsc techniques. It is expected that these MoS2 nanostrutures will find important applications in ene storage, catalysis and field emission. Published by Elsevier
