This study delves into the development and characterization of MoS₂ nanoparticles, employing a hydrothermal approach. The synthesized MoS₂ nanoparticles underwent comprehensive analysis utilizing various analytical techniques such as X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), UV-Visible spectroscopy, and BET surface analysis. XRD analysis revealed the presence of a hexagonal phase structure with a crystallite size of 13 nm, indicating the nanoscale nature of the synthesized material. RAMAN spectroscopy confirmed the presence of characteristic peaks corresponding to Mo and S, validating the composition of the composites. FESEM images shows that the formation of flake like morphology and EDX affirmed the presence of Mo and S elements with the absence of other impurities, ensuring the purity of the MoS₂ nanoparticles. UV-visible spectroscopy exhibited an energy band gap of 2.37 eV, suggesting potential applications in optoelectronic devices. BET surface area analysis revealed a surface area of 80 m²/g, indicative of the high surface area of the composites, which may enhance their reactivity and performance in various applications. These findings contribute to the understanding of MoS₂ nanoparticles and their potential utilization in fields such as solar cell, catalysis, sensing, and energy storage.
