Abstract

In an era of graphene-based nanomaterials as the most widely studied two-dimensional (2D) materials for enhanced performance of devices and systems in solar energy conversion applications, molybdenum disulfide (MoS ) stands out as a promising alternative 2D material with excellent properties. This review first examined various methods for MoS synthesis. It, then, summarized the unique structure and properties of MoS nanosheets. Finally, it presented the latest advances in the use of MoS nanosheets for important solar energy applications, including solar thermal water purification, photocatalytic process, and photoelectrocatalytic process.
