Structure of Amorphous MoS3
Open accessAbstract
The amorphous compound MoS3 has been investigated by monochromatic X-ray photoemission ( X P S) and vibrational spectroscopy, as well as by chemical extrusion aimed at identifying structural units inside MoS3. XPS shows that all molybdenum in MoS3 occurs in the 4-t oxidation state, while sulfur is present in at least two states, including S2- and Sz2- ligands in different types of coordination. This composition corresponds to a formal charge state of MorV(S2-)&-). The emission infrared spectrum of MOS3 exhibits characteristic vibrations that are also encountered in the spectra of triangular MON3Sx cluster compounds. Three of such cluster compounds, i.e. (NH&[MotV3S~3]*H20, K s [ M o ~ S ~ ( C N) ~ ~. ~ H ~ O, and (NEt&[MotV3S7C16] can be extruded from MoS3 by reactions that are essentially destructive. On the basis of these results it is proposed that MoS3 is essentially an aggregation of M~(IV)~-sulfur cluster types.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
