Vanadium disulfide flakes with nanolayered titanium disulfide coating as cathode materials in lithium-ion batteries.

Unlike the vast majority of transition metal dichalcogenides which are semiconductors, vanadium disulfide is metallic and conductive. This makes it particularly promising as an electrode material in lithium-ion batteries. However, vanadium disulfide exhibits poor stability due to large Peierls disto... View More
