Abstract

Pour a little sugar on it: A simple glucose-assisted hydrothermal method to directly grow MoS2 nanosheets (NSs) on the CNT backbone is reported (see picture). Several features of these [email protected]2 structures, including high MoS2 content in the hybrid structure, large surface area provided by the nanosheet structure, and a conducting network of amorphous carbon and CNT backbone, lead to significantly improved lithium storage properties.
