Molybdenum Disulfide for Different Applications -A Review

Abstract

MoS2 is a layered evolution metal having similar structure to graphene. It has got universal consideration due to its different applications as sensors, energy storage devices, energy adaptation and environmental remediation. The properties of MoS2 and graphene are almost comparable but MoS2 has higher tendency than graphene because it has a low cost, tunable band gap and good visibility for light absorption properties. So, our main focus is to elaborate the up-to-date advances of MoS2 with respect to applications of energy and environment at broad area, for example, applications in HER, Li-ion battery, dye sensitized soar cells and super capacitors. At last the submission of energy and environmental for challenges to design MoS2 are painted. But MoS2 also has some limitations as a good photo catalyst which are discussed in this review article. In this study, we systematically explore the recent researches on transition metal doped MoS2 as photo catalyst for hydrogen evolution by splitting the water.
