Abstract

Single-layer MoS2–carbon nanocomposites (SLMoS2/C) are facilely prepared via a dopamine (DOPA)–MoVI complexation-assisted approach. The large interlayer spacing, sandwich structure and crumpled nanosheet morphology of SLMoS2/C render it excellent electrochemical performances as a lithium-ion battery anode, showing a reversible capacity of 500 mA h g−1 at a discharge rate of 5 A g−1.
