Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) has become a promising low-cost alternative to Pt catalyst for electrochemical Hydrogen evolution reactions (HER). However, the poor conductivity and limited active sites of thermodynamically stable 2H-Phase MoS2 hinder its catalytic performance. Utilizing phase engineering to convert 2H MoS2 to metallic 1 T MoS2 is an effective strategy to improve the catalytic activity of MoS2. The commonly used synthetic and phase engineering methods such as electrochemical exfoliation involve using a complicated synthesis route or under strict experimental conditions or both. He...
