Description

ZrS3 nanosheets are different from our ZrS3 crystals in that ZrS3 nanosheets have been directly grown onto Zr thin foils using vapor liquid solid (VLS) growth technique. As shown in our product photos, highly crystalline ZrS3 nanoribbons  directly grow perpendicular to Zr foil surface in high densities. The product offer unique advantages over ZrS3 as summarized below;

Advantages of ZrS3 nanoribbons over ZrS3 crystals

  • Similar to ZrS3, Zr/ZrS3 nanosheets stacks can be mechanically exfoliated onto variety substrates
  • VLS grown ZrS3 are already really thin (~10) this mechanical exfoliation enables you to achieve monolayers much easily compared to bulk ZrS3
  • It is ideal for high update (battery, gas sensing / storage) applications

Environmentally stable anisotropic transition metal trichalcogenide material ZrS3 is available at 2Dsemiconductors USA. ZrS3 is a layered material like MoS2 and other layered systems, except that it exhibits highly anisotropic crystalline structure and material properties (Like ReS2 or TiS3). The presence of the crystalline anisotropy results in direction dependent properties like thermal conductivity, electronic mobility, and excitonic binding energies. environment. Crystals have been characterized by TEM, XPS, SIMS, Raman, and XRD and possess perfect 1:3 stoichiometry and defect density less than 1 defects / 10,000 unit cells.
