Large-scale Two-dimensional MoS Catalyst Prepared under Mild Conditions for Enhancing Electrocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution Reaction.

As an electrocatalyst with abundant resources and great potential, molybdenum disulfide is regarded as one of the most likely alternatives to expensive noble-metals catalysts. However, it is still a challenge to achieve large scale production of few-layer MoS with enhancing activity of electrocatalytic hydrogen reaction at ambient conditions. Herein, we developed a simple environmentally friendly two-step method, which included intercalation reaction and a subsequent electrochemical reduction reaction for mass preparation of defect-rich desulfurized MoS (D-MoS ) nanosheets with plentiful sulfur vacancies.

Atomic-scale engineering of ferroelectric-ferromagnetic interfaces of epitaxial perovskite films for functional properties.

Besides epitaxial mismatch that can be accommodated by lattice distortions and/or octahedral rotations, ferroelectric-ferromagnetic interfaces are affected by symmetry mismatch and subsequent magnetic ordering. Here, we have investigated La Sr MnO (LSMO) samples with varying underlying unit cells (uc) of BaTiO (BTO) layer on (001) and (110) oriented substrates in order to elucidate the role of symmetry mismatch. Lattice mismatch for 3 uc of BTO and symmetry mismatch for 10 uc of BTO, both associated with local MnO octahedral distortions of the (001) LSMO within the first few uc, are revealed by scanning transmission electron microscopy.
