TiS₂ Crystals

TiS₂ Crystals

TiS₂ (Titanium Disulfide) is a layered transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) with a hexagonal (1T) crystal structure, exhibiting metallic conductivity and excellent electrochemical properties. It has been widely investigated for its applications in energy storage, electronic devices, and 2D material research due to its high electrical conductivity, layered structure, and chemical stability. Our TiS₂ crystals are synthesized using the Chemical Vapor Transport (CVT) method, ensuring high purity, superior crystallinity, and well-controlled stoichiometry.
