The quest for materials with molecular scale properties that can satisfy the demands of the
21st century has led to the development of one dimensional nanostructures, ODNS. Nearly …

The discovery of carbon nanotubes in 1991 is a milestone in nanomaterials research. Since
then, more and more anisotropic nanoparticles have been detected and characterized. The …

Raman and resonance Raman spectra of MoS 2 nanoparticles, in the form of inorganic
fullerenelike nanoparticles with diameters ranging from 200 to 2000 Å in size, and platelets …

Focusing on layered compounds at the core of materials intercalation chemistry, this
reference comprehensively explores clays and other classes of materials exhibiting the …

Carbon nanotubes were discovered soon after the successful laboratory synthesis of
fullerenes. Since their discovery in 1991, there has been intensive research activity in the …

We have proposed in 1992 that nanoparticles of layered compounds will be unstable
against folding and close into fullerene-like structures and nanotubes (IF). Nanotubes and …

We report on the synthesis, structure, and self-assembly of single-wall subnanometer-
diameter molybdenum disulfide tubes. The nanotubes are up to hundreds of micrometers …

Efficient photocatalysts sensitive to visible and near infrared lights have attracted increased
concerns owing to the high utilization efficiency of solar energy. Herein, WS 2 quantum dots …

Near-monodisperse microscopic nanostructures of MoS2 were prepared by thermal
decomposition of two different ammonium thiomolybdate molecular precursors,(NH4) …

Since the first report on the synthesis of inorganic WS2 nanotubes in 1992, the number of
articles on the successful growth of different inorganic nanotubes has increased rapidly …
