• MoS2 nanoflakes The aim of this part is to define which Raman information is relevant to estimate the thickness of MoS2 samples produced by DLI-PP-CVD. These samples are significantly different from the previous ones (exfoliated and standard CVD). Indeed, they are constituted of nanoflakes (with a

• process is known as one of the scalable methods to synthesize MoS2 nanostructures. In this study, the gas sensing properties of flower-shaped MoS2 nanoflakes, which were prepared from molybdenum trioxide (MoO3) by a facile hydrothermal method, have been studied. Material characterization was performed

• nanoflakes. There are numbers of articles which report the successful growth of flower-like MoS2 nanoflakes using this technique [19][20][21][22][23]. Due to the high surface-to-volume ratio, activity, tunable band gap, low electrical noise and acceptable electrical conductivity, MoS2 is considered as one of
