Interfaces of 2D materials with metals are of interest for a large variety of applications, including sensors, batteries, catalysis, electronics, and semi-conductor devices. Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) and specifically MoS2 are some of the most widely studied 2D materials. A detailed understanding of the interactions of metals with 2D TMDs can give useful insights into possible applications for metal-TMD systems. However, the literature focuses mainly on comparing trends in single atom adsorption and studying nanoparticles on MoS2monolayers.
