Abstract

One-dimensional TiO₂ nanotube layers with different dimensions were homogeneously decorated with 2D MoS₂ nanosheets via atomic layer deposition and employed for liquid and gas phase photocatalysis. The 2D MoS₂ nanosheets revealed a high amount of exposed active edge sites and strongly enhanced the photocatalytic performance of TiO₂ nanotube layers.
