Abstract

Abstract: Lamellar molybdenum disulfide (MoS2 ) has attracted a wide range of research interests in recent years because of its two‐dimensional layered structure, ultrathin thickness, large interlayer distance, adjustable band gap, and capability to form different crystal structures. These special characteristics and high anisotropy have made MoS2 widely applicable in energy storage and harvesting. In this Minireview, a systematic and comprehensive introduction to MoS2, as well as its composites, is presented. It is aimed to summarize the various synthetic methods of MoS2 ‐based composites and their application in energy‐storage devices (lithium‐ion batteries, sodium‐ion batteries, lithium–sulfur batteries, and supercapacitors) in detail. Based on recent studies, this Minireview provides important and comprehensive guidelines for further study and development efforts in the MoS2 in energy‐storage field. Abstract : Power beyond the plane : MoS2 ‐based materials show great potential in the energy‐storage field with high capacity and stability. This review summarizes different synthetic methods and advances in lithium‐ion batteries, sodium‐ion batteries, lithium–sulfur batteries, supercapacitors, and other batteries for energy‐storage applications.
