Electrochemical and X-ray structural evidence of multiple molybdenum precursor candidates from a reported non-aqueous electrodeposition of molybdenum disulfide

Abstract

Various molybdenum complexes were identified reacting MoO3 and ethylene glycol, and both X-ray crystallography and electrochemistry provide a better understand of this complex, yet crucial reagent used for the 1st reported MoS2 electrodeposition.
