Study details why 2D molybdenumdisulfide formation gets a speed boost from salt RiceUniversity J_A_C_S
The theoretical study by Yakobson and colleagues Jincheng Lei, Yu Xie and Alex Kutana, all alumni of his lab, and researcher Ksenia Bets shows through the simulation of atom-level energies why salt—particularly iodized salt—lowers the reaction temperature in aIt does so by helping to skip some steps and leap high energy barriers in conventional CVD growth to yield far more MoSJournal of the American Chemical...
Their comprehensive models show that while the international labs used chloride salts to make their library of materials, the iodide salts commonly found on kitchen tables are better at speeding up the synthesis of MoS," Lei said."We carefully studied the entire growth process, hoping to optimize it as much as possible.
