^{Product Overview}

Tungsten disulfide (WS2) is a type of transition metal sulfide (TMDC) with a graphene like layered structure, where the layers are stacked together by weak van der Waals forces. Single layer WS2 is composed of three layers of atoms, with the atomic planes of W and S arranged in a hexagonal array. The W atoms are sandwiched between the two layers of S atoms, forming an S-W-S atomic layer structure with a "sandwich" structure. Multi layer or block WS2 is composed of single layers stacked together. Depending on the stacking method of the single layers, WS2 has three crystal structures: 1T, 2H, and 3R.

The synthesis methods of WS2 are mainly divided into two categories: "top-down" stripping method and "bottom-up" method. The "top-down" exfoliation method includes micro mechanical exfoliation, liquid-phase exfoliation, and lithium-ion intercalation, mainly using physical means to exfoliate the bulk WS2 into a single-layer or few layer layered structure. The "bottom-up" method includes chemical vapor deposition, hydrothermal method, and high-temperature thermal decomposition method, mainly using chemical means to grow atoms and molecules into nanoscale thin films and granular WS2 under certain environmental conditions.

The WS2 provided by Xianfeng is prepared by lithium intercalation method, using n-butyl lithium as intercalation agent to insert lithium ions into the interlayer of WS2, forming LixWS2 intercalation compound. The intercalation compound reacts violently with solvent water to generate a large amount of H2, thereby increasing the interlayer spacing of WS2 and weakening the van der Waals forces between layers. After ultrasonic treatment, thin and few layer WS2 dispersions are obtained. The WS2 nanosheets obtained by lithium intercalation method have a 1T-2H phase hybrid structure. According to XPS calculation, the fitting ratio of 1T phase is about 60% (the values may vary between different batches).

INSTRUCTION FOR USE

Attention: When taking TEM images, it is necessary to use micro grids (with the thinnest possible thickness) to prepare samples, which makes it easy to observe their layered structure; Dispersed liquid is prone to oxidation when exposed to air, and its color will fade over time. When storing, inert gas can be introduced to remove oxygen and extend the use time; The dispersion liquid will contain lithium hydroxide, which acts as a stabilizer to aid dispersion and can be removed by centrifugal washing; The powder is obtained by freeze-drying the dispersion, and its dispersibility is slightly worse than that of the original solution.
