Bottom-up (aerosol-assisted chemical vapor deposition, AACVD) and top-down (liquid phase exfoliation, LPE) processing methodologies are used in tandem to produce colloids of few-layer thick rhenium disulfide (ReS2) in N-methyl pyrrolidone.
A systematic bottom-up approach to search for acidic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) catalyst with high thermodynamic stability and high HER activity.
“Bottom-up’’ synthetic methods have the potential to produce high quality TMD nanostructures with controllable properties such as size, phase, morphology, and at low-cost.
