Direct solution-phase synthesis of 1T’ WSe2 nanosheets
Abstract
1T’ phases of transition metal dichalcogenides show promise for electrocatalysis, energy storage, and spintronic applications but are difficult to obtain. Here the authors synthesize 1T’ WSe2 few-layered nanosheets by kinetically-controlled colloidal synthesis, and test their electrocatalytic activity.
