Facile phase transition engineering of MoS₂ for electrochemical hydrogen evolution

Magnetron sputtering and DFT calculations revealed that the single-doped Cu-MoS₂, Au-MoS₂, Ag-MoS₂, and Al-MoS₂ exhibited distinct phase transitions compared to Cr-MoS₂, Hf-MoS₂, Ta-MoS₂, and Zr-MoS₂, due to the introduction of additional charge.
