As a member of the two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenide family, rhenium disulfide (ReS2) is a highly competitive favorite in the field of photoelectric sensors. Nevertheless, the rapid recombination of electron–hole pairs and poor electronic transmission capacity of pure ReS2 limit its wider applications. As a new attempt to optimize its inherent structure and challenge its competency boundary, in this work, a bimetallic co-chamber feeding atomic layer deposition with a precise dose regulation strategy has been used to fabricate ReS2 nanotubes (ReS2-NTs) and MoS2–ReS2 heterojunction nanotubes (MoS2–ReS2-HNTs) based on the anodic aluminum oxide template sacrifice method for the first time. These obtained NTs have at least two advantages: they have a controllable diameter (40–500 nm), definite wall thickness (1 layer to 10 layers), and desirable Mo-to-Re ratio (0 to 90%), and their electron-transfer capacity and photocurrent response can be effectively enhanced by the incorporated Mo atoms. Further experiments indicated that MoS2–ReS2-HNTs with a real Mo-to-Re ratio of 31.0% exhibits the best photocurrent response performance, by which the ultrasensitive detection of cancer-related miRNA-155 with a linear range of 10 aM to 1 nM and a detection limit of 1.8 aM is achieved.

The majority of previously reported cathodic electrochemiluminescence (ECL) systems often required very negative potential to be carried out, which has greatly limited their applications in the sensing field. Screening high-performance cathodic ECL systems with low triggering potential is a promising way to broaden their applications. In this work, rhenium disulfide nanosheets (ReS 2 NS) have been revealed as an efficient co-promoter to realize low-triggering-potential cathodic luminol ECL. One strong cathodic ECL signal appeared at a potential of −0.3 V and one anodic ECL peak was obtained at −0.15 V under the reverse potential scan, which were caused by electrogenerated reactive oxygen species (ROS) from hydrogen peroxide. The generation of strong luminol ECL at low potential was the result of the electrocatalytic effect of ReS 2 NS on the reduction of H 2 O 2 . The scavenging effect of uric acid (UA) on the ROS could significantly inhibit the cathodic ECL. As a result, an ECL sensor was proposed, which showed outstanding performance for the detection of UA in the range of 10 nM to 0.1 mM with a low detection limit of 1.53 nM. Moreover, the ECL sensor was successfully applied in the sensitive detection of UA in real samples. This work provides a new avenue to establish a low-potential cathodic ECL system, which will sufficiently expand the potential application of cathodic ECL in the sensing field.

Perfluorinated compounds (PFCs), recognized as persistent organic pollutants, resist degradation in the environment due to the high bond energy of the C–F. Increasing carrier density via adopting electrostatic self-assembly strategy has been shown to effectively cleave C–F bonds. In this work, a unique S-scheme structure was fabricated by combining oppositely charged semiconductors, TiO 2 and ReS 2 , through electrostatic self-assembly. The resulting 2 % ReS 2 -TiO 2 composite achieved a photodegradation efficiency of 98 % for perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), considerably higher than the 62 % efficiency observed for pure TiO 2 . Additionally, the 2 % ReS 2 -TiO 2 composite demonstrated broad applicability for the removal of other PFCs. The introduction of ReS 2 , with a lower work function than TiO 2 , could generate an internal electric field (IEF) to facilitate electron transfer from TiO 2 to ReS 2 under continuous irradiation and thereby enhance charge separation efficiency.

In this work, the nanocables of few-layered ReS 2 nanosheets sandwiched between carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and nitrogen-doped amorphous carbon (NC) coating (i.e., CNT@ReS 2 @NC) are synthesized as high-performance anodes of both potassium-ion batteries (PIBs) and sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). The CNT@ReS 2 @NC nanocables with dual carbon modifications have the several advantages for efficient K + /Na + storage. The few-layered ReS 2 nanosheets with a wide interlayer spacing of 0.64 nm contribute to accelerated reaction kinetics for fast K + /Na + intercalation/extraction. The carbon nanotube skeleton with a hollow interior can effectively relieve the volume change and serve as a robust conductive network to boost structural stability . The NC layer provides rich defects as active sites and suppresses the shuttle effect of polysulfides produced in discharge/charge processes. Consequently, the CNT@ReS 2 @NC nanocables possess outstanding electrochemical performance in both PIBs and SIBs owing to the synergistic effect from the different components. A long cycling lifespan of 3500 cycles with a maintained discharge capacity of 125 mAh/g is achieved for CNT@ReS 2 @NC at 1 A/g in PIBs. In SIBs, it can keep a high capacity of 202 mAh/g over 3000 cycles at 5 A/g. Moreover, the CNT@ReS 2 @NC||Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 full cell can exhibit remarkable cycling performance, yielding a low capacity decay rate of 0.019 % per cycle over 1000 cycles at 2C.

The expected approach to improve the electrochemical performance of layered transition metal dichalcogenides is to thin them down to monolayer for minimizing the barrier of lithium-ion intercalation and diffusion. In this work, a distinct nanocomposite constructed from nanosized ReS 2 monolayers uniformly embedded in nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes is synthesized via a facile hydrothermal method followed by calcination. When evaluated as anode materials for lithium ion batteries, the robust nanocomposites exhibit a reversible capacity of 825 mAh g −1 at 100 mA g −1 after 100 cycles with an initial Coulombic efficiency as high as 83%, and more importantly, retain an outstanding capacity of 612 mAh g −1 at 1 A g −1 after 500 cycles with an excellent capacity retention of 80%. Kinetics analysis of the redox reactions reveals that 86% of the charge storage is controlled by a capacitive behavior, leading to both high-rate and long-life lithium storage performances. The design of the nanocomposites offers a promising strategy to achieve extra power over batteries by capacitive energy storage.

Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides materials have recently been explored as possible substrates for surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). However, in comparison to the conventional noble-metal-based counterpart, most of the 2D materials have very small area for SERS measurement, which is a big limitation toward practical applications. Herein, we presented our study of SERS using substrate-scale continuous ReS 2 monolayer films on flexible mica substrate. We demonstrated that the charge transfer between the target molecules and the atomically thin ReS 2 can be modulated by the underlying substrate of ReS 2 , resulting in greatly different suppressing level of FL background. Kelvin probe force microscopy revealed a large difference of surface potential between ReS 2 /SiO 2 and ReS 2 /mica, suggesting that the strong FL quenching of molecular on ReS 2 /mica might be attributed to the inert surface of layered mica. The large-area ReS 2 monolayer films on mica show a detection limit of R6G molecule around 10 −7 M and a robust SERS performance after an exposure in air for one month and repeated bending for 1000 times. Our work explores the practical application of 2D ReS 2 for molecular detection via SERS technique.

The world energy crisis is a significant challenge we facing today. To alleviate this problem, the idea of the further development and utilization of solar energy has been proposed. The application of solar energy could not only reduce human’s dependence on traditional fossil fuels but also mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. Photothermal materials, which can directly convert light into heat, are of great practical importance in the field of desalination and solar thermoelectric generators. Consequently, it is of great significance to develop novel photothermal material which can efficiently absorb solar radiation of wide spectrum and convert it into heat energy. Inspired by the light-sensitive structure of sea urchins, in this work we propose the preparation of a novel photothermal material Re/ReS 2 /ZnS/NDC with layered heterostructure. This material exhibits outstanding wide-band absorption capability and achieves a high photothermal conversion efficiency of 82.33 %. Under 1 Sun irradiation, Re/ReS 2 /ZnS/NDC/PVA could achieve the water evaporation rate of 3.15 kg·m −2 ·h −1 and the power density of 2.40 W·m −2 in the photothermal evaporation and photothermal-electric conversion experiments. This work provides a biomimetic design approach for synthesizing novel and efficient photothermal materials.

The high efficient utilization of light absorption and the effective separation of photogenerated carriers are critical factors in enhancing the performance of photocatalysts. In this study, CoNi-layered double hydroxide was synthesized using zeolitic imidazolate frameworks-67 as a template, followed by calcination to form CoS 2 /NiS 2 . Subsequently, ReS 2 was deposited onto the surface of CoS 2 /NiS 2 , resulting in the ReS 2 /CoS 2 /NiS 2 photocatalyst demonstrated notable hydrogen evolution activity under visible light, achieving a maximum hydrogen production rate of 40111.8 μmol/g. The construction of the Z-scheme heterojunction was found to facilitate the transfer and separation of photogenerated carriers while extending the lifetime of photogenerated electrons, thereby contributing to the enhancement of photocatalytic activity. This study provides a new approach for the development of sulfide heterojunctions aimed at improving photocatalytic hydrogen production efficiency.

Improving water adsorption and hydrogen (H) atoms desorption capacities are critical issues for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in alkaline media. Herein, a ReS 2 /NiS heterostructure was generated in situ on the surface of the nickel foam (NF) using a facile hydrothermal process. The combination of experimental and density functional theory (DFT) analyses revealed a charge transfer from NiS to ReS 2 , which directly promoted water adsorption on Ni sites in NiS as well as H desorption on S sites in ReS 2 . Moreover, the antioxidation capacity of the heterointerface in the catalyst improved. Therefore, the formed ReS 2 /NiS@NF delivered an excellent HER activity very close to that of commercial Pt/C at low current density with overpotential of 78 mV at 10 mA/cm 2 while remarkably outperforming Pt/C at high current densities. The ReS 2 /NiS@NF also exhibited remarkable stability at 150 mA/cm 2 . This work provides a strategy for designing excellent electrocatalysts based on NiS.

People pay more and more attention to their own health and environmental safety, which makes the monitoring and treatment of harmful amines such as triethylamine (TEA) emitted in the industrial process increasingly critical. In order to address this issue, we focus on the heterostructure construction of two-dimensional rhenium disulfide (ReS 2 ) and acid-functionalized carbon nanotubes (f-MWCNTs), using their unique electronic properties and high specific surface area for triethylamine gas detection. The findings demonstrated that, at room temperature (25°C), the ReS 2 /f-MWCNTs sensor's response to 100 ppm TEA reached 63 %. Under the same environmental conditions (25℃), the response value of the ReS 2 sensor to 100 ppm TEA is 6 %, and the sensing performance is improved by more than 10 times. In addition, the sensor has fast response recovery (73 s/46 s) and good repeatability and stability. Based on this research, we designed a simple detection device, providing a direction for the practical detection application of TEA sensors.

Piezoelectricity in 2D transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) has gathered significant interest due to their massive exposure of unsaturated edge sites and high piezoelectric modulus. Nevertheless, the piezoelectricity in 1 T′ phase TMDs is inhibited by its center symmetry of space group. Herein, to break the shackles of piezoelectric polarization, we synthesize a piezoelectric material composed of an atomic molybdenum array bound to distorted 1 T′ ReS 2 (MDR). The phase transition from 1 T′ to distorted 1 T′ (D-1 T′) removes the special Peierl's distortion of ReS 2 , breaking its center symmetry and allowing for piezoelectric generation. Remarkably, MDR exhibits a large piezoelectric coefficient ( d 33 ) value of 15.45 pm/V, which is an order of magnitude higher than those reported in other TMDs. Combining with excellent piezocatalytic activity, a 0D/3D di-piezoelectric porous electret featuring an enhanced quantum confinement piezoelectric effect based on the MDR quantum dots (QDs) and inverse opal g-C 3 N 4 (IOCN) is demonstrated for high-efficiency piezoelectric catalysis.

Hydrogen emerges as a promising alternative to fossil fuels owing to its environmentally friendly and renewable nature. As the global energy crisis intensifies, the development of efficient bifunctional electrocatalysts for overall water splitting becomes increasingly imperative. Herein, we present the fabrication of ReS 2 /Ni 3 S 2 heterostructure on the nickel foam (NF) substrate via a facile one-step electrodeposition approach. The study uncovered a significant synergistic effect between ReS 2 and Ni 3 S 2 , thereby obtaining excellent catalytic activity in both hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER). The remarkable electrocatalytic activity of the ReS 2 /Ni 3 S 2 /NF catalyst is evidenced by its exceptionally low overpotentials of just 116 mV and 307 mV for HER and OER, respectively, at a current density of 10 mA cm −2 . Furthermore, this catalyst demonstrates outstanding performance in the overall water splitting process, achieving a current density of 10 mA cm −2 at a low cell voltage of only 1.71 V and the catalytic activity remains stable over an extended duration of 100 h. This discovery not only paves the way for their broader practical applications in the future but also enriches the exploration of high-performance electrocatalysts.
