Evaluating the Effect of Varying the Metal Precursor in the Colloidal Synthesis of MoSe<sub>2</sub> Nanomaterials and Their Application as Electrodes in the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction

Evaluating the Effect of Varying the Metal Precursor in the Colloidal Synthesis of MoSe<sub>2</sub> Nanomaterials and Their Application as Electrodes in the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction

Herein we report on the use of different metal precursors in the synthesis of MoSe<sub>2</sub> nanomaterials in order to control their morphology. The use of Mo(CO)<sub>6</sub> as the metal precursor resulted in the formation of wrinkled few-layer nanosheets, while the use of...
