Abstract

This research is presents a new formulation to obtain MoS2 nanoparticles using chemical reaction controlled and using non-hazardous compounds and easy handling. MoS2 nanoparticles of 5 nm size with hexagonal structure were obtained and characterized by HRTEM. From UV-Vis spectroscopy were determined the direct as indirect energies band gap of 3.13 eV and 2.78 eV, respectively. Chemical composition was corroborated by XRay Photoelectron Spectroscopy, while Fourier Transform Infrared only show the functional group presents in the dispersive media for MoS2 nanoparticles.
