α‒Fe2O3/MoS2 nanocomposites were synthesized via hydrothermal method and characterized in terms of crystal structure, particle size and morphology, elemental purity and optical properties. Results confirmed the formation of α‒Fe2O3/MoS2 nanocomposites containing hematite nanoparticles with average diameter of 40 nm and MoS2 nanosheets with hexagonal crystal structure and sheet thickness o...

Electrochromic materials can tune the illumination and heat exchange of a building with environment thereby save energy in lighting, heating, air conditioning cost-effective way, which is vital realizing carbon neutrality. 2D frameworks such as coordination nanosheets (CONASHs) that are widely explored for wide range applications storage conversion be cluster novel electrochromic materials. In ...

Incorporating two-dimensional (2D) diamond nanosheets with fluorescent color centers exhibits great potential in the application of quantum sensing. However, always show poor optical emission chemical-vapor-deposited (CVD) nanomaterials. To address this issue, Si doped diamond/graphite hybrid films were successfully fabricated microwave-plasma CVD device. The consist diamond-core/graphite-shell...

Nanoporous FeP nanosheets are successfully synthesized via the anion-exchange reaction of inorganic-organic hybrid Fe18S25-TETAH (TETAH = protonated triethylenetetramine) nanosheets with P ions. The as-prepared nanoporous FeP nanosheets exhibit high electrochemical hydrogen evolution reaction activity in acidic medium.

Ultrathin monolayer HNbWO6 nanosheets have been successfully prepared through a simple and ultrafast ion intercalation assisted exfoliation method. These obtained highly dispersed nanosheets present enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen evolution activity compared to the nanosheets prepared by the traditionally time-consuming process.
