description <p>Abstract</p><p>MoS<sub>2</sub>nanofiber bundles have been prepared by hydrothermal method using ammonium molybdate with sulfur source in acidic medium and maintained at 180 &#176;C for several hours. The obtained black crystalline products are characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The PXRD pattern of the sample can be readily indexed as hexagonal 2H-MoS<sub>2</sub>. FTIR spectrum of the MoS<sub>2</sub>shows the band at 480 cm<sup>&#8722;1</sup>corresponds to the &#947;<sub>as</sub>(Mo-S). SEM/TEM images of the samples exhibit that the MoS<sub>2</sub>nanofiber exist in bundles of 120&#8211;300 nm in diameter and 20&#8211;25 &#956;m in length. The effects of temperature, duration and other experimental parameters on the morphology of the products are investigated.</p>
