Twisting between layered materials in close proximity causes reconstruction of the electron and crystal structures. The resulting reconstruction has received increasing attention due to the realization of magic-angle superconductivity, moiré excitons, and moiré ferroelectricity. However, demonstrations of such concepts for phonon polarization have been very limited. Here, we reported on the systematic angle-dependent polarized Raman (ADPR) investigations on the twisted bilayer (tBL) α-MoO3 with each layer in a thickness of ∼14 nm. Under 532 and 633 nm excitation, (i) the Raman intensity (I) of representative Mo–Oc symmetric stretching vibration phonon mode (SVPM) at 818 cm–1 and rigid MoO4 translational vibration phonon mode (TVPM) at 156 cm–1 decreases monotonically with the twist angle (φ) increase and (ii) the polar plots of both modes were tuned from axial symmetry to central symmetry by φ increase. The dependence of I and symmetry of both modes on φ were described semiquantitatively by applying the classical Placzek approximation and the interference effect. Our findings unravel the complex interaction between the twisted layer configurations and phonon behaviors of α-MoO3, providing valuable insights into the anomalous phonon polarization responses in low symmetric two-dimensional materials and potentially facilitating the development of technologies based on tunable phonon polarization.

We report α-MoO 3 flowers as a highly effective organics adsorbent for the first time. With α-MoO 3 microfibers (MFs), α-MoO 3 flowers uniformly self-assemble on a carbon cloth, serving as a great organics scavenger. They not only provide a high specific surface area but also possess van der Waals force, both of which guarantee a high adsorption efficiency for multiple organics. Nearly 100% of Rhodamine B (RhB), methylene blue (MB), and crystal violet (CV) are rapidly adsorbed while flowing through the designed α-MoO 3 flower-based filtration device. Even after five recycling times, its high adsorption efficiency toward RhB remains unaffected. The adsorption capacity of α-MoO 3 flowers for RhB, MB, and CV reaches up to 4974, 6217, and 3886 mg/m 2 , respectively. Additionally, this novel adsorbent can adapt to a wide pH range, maintaining the excellent capacity of 4774 and 4473 mg/m 2 toward RhB at pH of 2.0 and 12.0. The α-MoO 3 flowers can also adsorb other organics, including MO, noroxin, and tetracycline hydrochloride. Moreover, the free-standing α-MoO 3 flowers on a carbon cloth realize the adsorptive filtration for organics removal, which not only require no conditions and no energy consumption but also avoid secondary pollution to the water as compared to the powdery adsorbents.

Replacing the commercial graphite anode in Li-ion batteries with pseudocapacitor materials is an effective way to obtain high-performance energy storage devices. α-MoO3is an attractive pseudocapacitor electrode material due to its theoretical capacity of 1117 mAh g−1. Nevertheless, its low conductivity greatly limits its electrochemical performance. MXene is often used as a 2D conductive substrate and flexible framework for the development of a non-binder electrode because of its unparalleled electronic conductivity and excellent mechanical flexibility. Herein, a free-standing α-MoO3/MXene composite anode with a high specific capacity and an outstanding rate capability was prepared using a green and simple method. The resultant α-MoO3/MXene composite electrode combines the advantages of each of the two components and possesses improved Li+diffusion kinetics. In particular, this α-MoO3/MXene free-standing electrode exhibited a high Li+storage capacity (1008 mAh g−1at 0.1 A g−1) and an outstanding rate capability (172 mAh g−1at 10 A g−1), as well as a much extended cycling stability (500 cycles at 0.5 A g−1). Furthermore, a full cell was fabricated using commercial LiFePO4as the cathode, which displayed a high Li+storage capacity of 160 mAh g−1with an outstanding rate performance (48 mAh g−1at 1 A g−1). We believe that our research reveals new possibilities for the development of an advanced free-standing electrode from pseudocapacitive materials for high-performance Li-ion storage.Keywords:free-standing electrode;α-MoO3/MXene composite anode;high capacity;electrochemical energy storage

One-dimensional α-MoO3 nanorods were synthesized by a hydrothermal method and BiVO4 nanoparticles were grown directly onto the α-MoO3 nanorods using a simple metal organic decomposition process in order to construct an α-MoO3/BiVO4 composite with a heterojunction, for the fabrication of a rapid response triethylamine (TEA) sensor. The morphology and structure of the composite were characterized via various spectral techniques and the sensing properties of the sensor for TEA were investigated via resistance measurements. The results showed that the response of the 16Mo/Bi composite to 20 ppm TEA was 1.86 times and 15 times higher than those of α-MoO3 and BiVO4, respectively, at an optimum operating temperature of 125 °C. The enhancement can be ascribed to the existence of a heterojunction between α-MoO3 and BiVO4, creating an additional barrier at the interface of the heterojunction, and this increases the resistance of the composite in air and decreases the resistance in TEA, thus enhancing the response of the composite to TEA.

We introduce an easy and scalable approach to synthesize α-MoO3-decorated graphene sheets from a graphite electrode by molybdate-assisted electrochemical exfoliation. The samples were examined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transformation infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric analysis. TEM analysis shows that the exfoliated material consists of mainly a few-layers of graphene and the results of XPS, FT-IR and Raman confirmed the presence of α-MoO3 on the graphene sheets. Moreover, XPS spectra indicate that the content of surface oxygen groups on the graphene sheets is lower than that on graphite oxide. After being heat-treated at low-temperature (200 °C), samples exhibited high conductivity (up to 5367 S m−1) and good specific capacitance (up to 86.3 F g−1) when tested as electrode materials in a supercapacitor.

Real-time monitoring of triethylamine (TEA) is critical to environmental safety and daily life. However, detailed challenges remain for TEA gas sensors, such as low-cost and facile synthetic methods, and low working temperatures. In this study, a combination of hydrothermal and wet chemical approaches is utilized for the rational construction of α -MoO 3 @WO 3 with a sheet-like nanostructure. Additionally, the sensing performances towards triethylamine are investigated. According to the results, it was found that the α -MoO 3 @WO 3 sensor has a higher response value (80.4) and faster response and recovery times (9/26 s) than those of pristine MoO 3 at low optimum temperature (200 °C). Again, the α -MoO 3 @WO 3 based sensor also demonstrated high selectivity to TEA as well as good stability. The enhancement of the MoO 3 @WO 3 sensor's gas-sensitive mechanism may be attributed to the formation of n-n heterojunction between MoO 3 and WO 3 and the synergistic effect of both.

Novel nanoflake-like and nanobelt-like α-MoO3/graphene nanocomposites were synthesized by a facile hydrothermal method through tailoring the content of Mo source. The formation mechanisms of α-MoO3/graphene nanocomposites with different morphologies has been investigated. As a model, the α-MoO3/graphene nanocomposites were studied for electrochemical energy storage supercapacitor devices. The results showed that α-MoO3 nanoflakes/graphene displayed better supercapacitive performances than that of α-MoO3 nanobelts/graphene, arising from the structural superiority and optimum compositions. The best composite exhibited a high specific capacitance (up to 360 F g−1) at a current density of 0.2 A g−1, good rate capability, and a nearly 100% long-term cycle stability. This study provided a facile and optimal experimental design to prepare α-MoO3/graphene composite materials which act as promising electrode materials for high-performance supercapacitors.

A hot research topic in visible-light-driven photoelectrocatalytic (PEC) oxidation technology is the development of superior photoanode materials. The design of the photoanode system with a direct Z-scheme charge transfer mechanism is crucial to achieving effective charge separation for sustainable photoelectrocatalysis. Here, a novel Bi / Bi 2 S 3 /α-MoO 3 heterostructure was successfully assembled by a simple and feasible strategy. The direct Z-scheme heterogeneous formed between Bi 2 S 3 and α-MoO 3 has the advantages of low resistance, high optical response current and the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) effect of Bi nanoparticles (Bi NPs). Thus, the efficiency of photogenerated carrier separation and transfer is further enhanced, and the catalytic activity is significantly improved. It is impressive that the unique photoanode has achieved a maximum removal efficiency of 85.8% of tetracycline (TC) pollutants under visible light irradiation within 60 min and has excellent stability, which is expected to degrade antibiotics efficiently and environmentally in harsh environments. These characteristics give Bi / Bi 2 S 3 /α-MoO 3 promising candidates for practical applications in antibiotic degradation.

Molybdenum trioxide (MoO 3 ) has been widely studied in the energy storage field due to its various phase states and unique structural advantages. Among them, lamellar α -phase MoO 3 ( α -MoO 3 ) and tunnel-like h -phase MoO 3 ( h- MoO 3 ) have attracted much attention. In this study, we demonstrate that vanadate ion (VO 3 - ) can transform α -MoO 3 (a thermodynamically stable phase) to h -MoO 3 (a metastable phase) by altering the connection of [MoO 6 ] octahedra configurations. h -MoO 3 with VO 3 - inserted (referred to as h -MoO 3 -V) as the cathode material for aqueous zinc ion batteries (AZIBs) exhibits excellent Zn 2+ storage performances. The improvement in electrochemical properties is attributed to the open tunneling structure of the h -MoO 3 -V, which offers more active sites for Zn 2+ (de)intercalation and diffusion. As expected, the Zn// h -MoO 3 -V battery delivers specific capacity of 250 mAh·g −1 at 0.1 A·g −1 and rate capability (73% retention from 0.1 to 1 A·g −1 , 80 cycles), well exceeding those of Zn// h -MoO 3 and Zn// α -MoO 3 batteries. This study demonstrates that the tunneling structure of h -MoO 3 can be modulated by VO 3 - to enhance the electrochemical properties for AZIBs. Furthermore, it provides valuable insights for the synthesis, development and future applications of h -MoO 3 .

A rational design and directional synthesis of well-defined porous metal oxide heterostructures remains a challenge for the fabrication of new gas sensors with enhanced sensing properties. Herein, a novel hierarchical heterostructure of α-Fe2O3@α-MoO3 microcubes was prepared by applying a self-sacrifice template strategy, in which a porous metal–organic framework (MOF) was used as the precursor with the partial insertion of OH− and MoO42− and extraction of [Fe(CN)6]34− followed by heating treatment. Benefiting from the porous microcubic structural characteristic, the α-Fe2O3@α-MoO3 heterostructures exhibited excellent selectivity and high sensitivity for triethylamine gas with the highest response value (Ra/Rg) of 18.64 under the operating temperature of 240 °C. The experimental results also revealed that the material showed a fast response and recovery time (12 s/106 s) and excellent repeatability for at least 20 days. This feasible synthetic strategy may provide a versatile and controlled way to prepare other polymetal oxide-based heterostructures with improved sensing performance.

Layered molybdenum trioxide (α-MoO 3 ) storing protons exhibits a high theoretical capacity and extraordinary rate capability and can be used as a reliable anode material for aqueous proton batteries. But a severe dissolution issue during operation always results in rapid failure in battery performance. Herein, a bifunctional molecular crowding electrolyte was engineered to address this issue. The high-concentration inert polymer, polyethylene glycol 400, reduces the free water activity of the electrolyte and the low-concentration solute, trifluoromethanesulfonic acid, forms a proton-rich electrolyte environment under such a water-poor condition thanks to its intrinsic superacidity, both of which favour the reverse shift of the dissolution equilibrium, and with the latter enabling the electrolyte with high ion conductivity as well. Thus, the α-MoO 3 electrode in the above electrolyte shows a longer lifespan without sacrificing its rate capability. The analysis on charge storage mechanisms by X-ray powder diffraction technique demonstrates that α-MoO 3 undergoes bare proton-involved multistep two-phase and solid-solution reactions, where only the two-phase reaction between hydrogen molybdenum bronze II and III phases and the solid-solution reactions of themselves are reversible.
