Diatomite-Templated Synthesis of Single-Atom Cobalt-Doped MoS /Carbon Composites to Boost Sodium Storage.

2D transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) and single-atom catalysts (SACs) are promising electrodes for energy conversion/storage because of the layered structure and maximum atom utilization efficiency. However, the integration of such two type materials and the relevant sodium storage applications remain daunting challenges. Here, an ingenious diatomite-templated synthetic strategy is designed to fabricate single-atom cobalt-doped MoS /carbon (SA Co-MoS /C) composites toward the high-performance sodium storage.
