2D MoS2 Heterostructures on Epitaxial and Self‐Standing Graphene for Energy Storage: From Growth Mechanism to Application

“…[ 4,5 ] These characteristics can be exploited not only in nanoelectronics, but also in a large number of other applications, like sensing, [ 6–8 ] optoelectronics [ 6,9,10 ] and energy storage. [ 11–16 ]…”

“…[4,5] These characteristics can be exploited not only in nanoelectronics, but also in a large number of other applications, like sensing, [6][7][8] optoelectronics [6,9,10] and energy storage. [11][12][13][14][15][16] One way of combining the favorable characteristics of semiconducting 2D materials with the exceptional conductivity of graphene, is by stacking them to create van der Waals heterostructures. [17] The presence of Tungsten (W) and Molybdenum (Mo) in transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) generates semiconducting 2D materials with tuneable bandgaps from 1 to 2 eV, [18][19][20] enabling the production of heterostructures with many desirable optical and electronic characteristics when combined with semi metallic graphene.…”
