 The researchers have developed a new hybrid material consisting of small molybdenum disulfide, MOS2, nanoparticles surrounded by a nanoporous carbon matrix. This material has several advantages over traditional materials used in lithium-ion batteries, libs, including improved electrical conductivity, reduced diffusion length of lithium ions, and increased stability.
