Summary: Among transition metal chalcogenides, MoS2 is widely studied due to its fascinating physico-chemical properties. Its layered structure and high surface-to-volume ratio have attracted attention in energy storage, leading to numerous applications. While there are review articles on MoS2 and MoS2-based nanocomposites for energy storage applications, there is a lack of reviews focusing on the supercapacitor performance of MoS2. This article presents recent advances in MoS2-based supercapacitors, discussing the conducting-semiconducting phases, doping effects, and the status of MoS2 in flexible and wearable supercapacitors, as well as future prospects and challenges as electrode materials.

Summary: A novel heterojunction of MoS2 and a-Fe2O3 was successfully synthesized by hydrothermal method, which showed enhanced photocatalytic and photoelectrochemical performance due to special adjustments to the nanostructure. The nano MoS2/a-Fe2O3 exhibited excellent surface area and intrinsic edges, leading to more active reaction sites. The formation of strong heterojunction between the two semiconductors contributed to the improved photocatalytic degradation of organic dyes. The fabricated nano MF samples demonstrated stability, reusability and wide utilization potential in photocatalytic and PEC processes.

Among them, the gas sensor of MS-ZNO-5 showed the highest response to 2 ppm H2S and less response to other tested gases. The sensor also exhibited humble selectivity, good stability, promising reproducibility, rapid response/recovery times, low detection limit, and a linear relationship between H2S concentration and response.

Summary: By using Au@MoS2 core-shell hetero-structures as sensitive materials, a visible-light-assisted gas sensor was designed, and the effect of localized surface plasmon resonance on gas-sensitive features was investigated. The optimized sensor exhibited an enhanced response and elevated recoverability for the detection of NO2 (1 ppm), primarily due to the effective amplification of the light absorption efficiency of MoS2 induced by the LSPR effect from the Au nanoparticle cores. This study provides a new insight into the development of high-performance visible-light-modulated gas sensors.

Summary: This study reports a nanocomposite with a unique structure of MoS2 nanosheets dispersed SnO2 nanoparticles. The sensing performance of a MoS2/SnO2 sensor towards low concentration CO was investigated under UV light illumination. It was found that the MoS2/SnO2 sensor exhibits improved CO gas response compared to pure SnO2, which is attributed to the formation of a heterostructure between MoS2 and SnO2. Additionally, the sensor also demonstrates fast response and recovery time. It provides a potential platform for monitoring CO gas at room temperature.

Summary: In this study, a p-NiO/n-SnO2 heterojunction-based formaldehyde (HCHO) sensor was fabricated by decorating the surface of pre-deposited SnO2 thin film with laser-ablated NiO nanoparticles. The gas sensing properties of the sensor were systematically investigated, and it showed a higher response towards 50 ppm HCHO compared to the pristine SnO2 sensor. The study demonstrated that laser ablation methods have great potential as a chemical-free surface decoration route for metal oxide heterojunction-based sensors.

Summary: Pd-modified Sb-doped SnO2 nanomaterials were prepared using a hydrothermal reaction and reduction method. The samples exhibited uniform doping of Sb within the SnO2 lattice and successful incorporation of Pd on the surface. Compared to pristine SnO2, the material with 3 mol% Sb doping and 7 wt% Pd decoration showed the highest response to hydrogen gas at high temperature, as well as excellent selectivity and cycling stability. The improved sensing performance was attributed to changes in the energy band structure, lattice distortion-induced oxygen vacancies, and strong metal-support interaction between Pd and SnO2.
