Highly effective visible-light-induced H(2) generation by single-layer 1T-MoS(2) and a nanocomposite of few-layer 2H-MoS(2) with heavily nitrogenated graphene.
Two sorts of MoS2 : A single-layer, metallic form of MoS2 (1T-MoS2 ) and a nanocomposite of a second form of MoS2 (few-layer 2H-MoS2 ) with heavily nitrogenated reduced graphene oxide (NRGO; N content ca. 15 %) show outstanding performance in the production of H2 under visible-light illumination.
