The invention relates to a two-dimensional
transition metal sulfide and a preparation method thereof. According to the technical scheme,
aluminum foil and target
metal foil with the same size or
aluminum foil and each of the two kinds of
metal foil with the same size are soaked in absolute ethyl
alcohol, and are ultrasonically cleaned, dried, aligned and stacked, and the
metal foil stacked neatlyis obtained; the roll gap of a two-high
rolling mill is adjusted to be 0.1 mm, the
metal foil stacked neatly is folded and rolled repeatedly 15-50 times, the folded and rolled
metal foil is soaked inan etchant for 12-48 hours, filtering is performed, ultrasonic treatment in an
ethanol solution is performed, a suspension is taken, centrifuged twice and filtered twice,
drying is performed, and thetarget two-dimensional
transition metal foil is obtained; finally, a porcelain boat with the target two-dimensional
transition metal foil laid at the bottom is placed in the downwind direction of a constant temperature area of a
vacuum tube furnace, and a porcelain boat with sublimed
sulfur laid at the bottom is placed in the upwind direction of the constant temperature area of the
vacuum tube furnace; two-dimensional transition metal
sulfide is obtained under the condition of circulating
argon and temperature kept at 300-800 DEG C for 3-12 h. The two-dimensional transition metal
sulfide and the preparation method thereof have the advantages of high production efficiency, simple process and controllable product thickness.
