title: Targeted Synthesis of 2H- and 1T-Phase MoS2Monolayers for Catalytic Hydrogen Evolution.
abstract: Through a facile and effective strategy by employing lithium molten salts the controlled synthesis of 2H- and 1T-MoS2monolayers with high-yield production is achieved. Both phases of MoS2monolayers exhibit high stabilities. When used as a catalyst for hydrogen evolution, these phased MoS2monolayers deliver respective advantages in the field of electro- and photo-catalytic hydrogen evolution.
