Structural Analysis of Nanoscale-Ordered Organic-Inorganic Architectures Based on MoS2: Approaches And Results

Molybdenum disulfide ranks among the most popular non-carbon 2D materials. Its single-layer particles and organic-inorganic layered compounds display unique properties that are highly demanded in different fields. Determining the atomic structures of the corresponding materials, many of which are low-ordered and metastable, is a serious challenge even today. This review analyzes the opportunities and limitations of the methods and approaches that are used for structural investigations of these materials and highlights the most significant results obtained in recent years.
