transition metal dichalcogenides (tmds)

How are TMDs Synthesized for Catalytic Applications?

TMDs can be synthesized using several methods, including:
1. Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD): A popular method for producing high-quality, large-area TMD films.
2. Liquid-phase Exfoliation: Allows for the production of TMD nanosheets in large quantities by exfoliating bulk materials in solvents.
3. Hydrothermal Synthesis: A versatile method for growing TMDs with various morphologies by reacting precursors in a high-pressure, high-temperature aqueous solution.
4. Mechanical Exfoliation: A simpler, albeit less scalable, method where bulk TMD crystals are peeled to obtain thin layers.
