RESUMO
Fullerene-based low-dimensional (LD) heterostructures have emerged as excellent energy conversion materials. We constructed van der Waals 1T-MoS2/C60 0D-2D heterostructures via a one-pot synthetic approach for catalytic hydrogen generation. The interfacial 1T-MoS2-C60 and C60-C60 interactions as well as their electrocatalytic properties were finely controlled by varying the weight percentages of the fullerenes. 1T-MoS2 platforms provided a novel template for the formation of C60 nanosheets (NSs) within a very narrow fullerene concentration range. The heterostructure domains of 1T-MoS2 and C60 NSs exhibited excellent hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) performances, with one of the lowest onset potentials and ΔGH* values for LD non-precious nanomaterials reported to date.
