Lithium intercalation compound dramatically influences the electrochemical properties of exfoliated MoS2 by Ambrosi, Adriano, Sofer, Zdeněk, Pumera, Martin

“…Here, the use of three different organolithium compounds are investigated and compared, i.e., methyllithium (Me-Li), n-butyllithium (n-Bu-Li) and tert-butyllithium (t-Bu-Li), used for the exfoliation of bulk MoS2. Scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM), Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and cyclic voltammetry (CV) are adopted for a comprehensive characterization of all materials under investigation. …”
