We have developed a controllable solvothermal method to grow intrinsically conductive MoS₂ nanosheet arrays in a metastable 1T phase on carbon fiber cloth (CFC) as binder-free, high-activity Li-ion battery (LIB) anodes. By introducing surface hydroxyl groups on the CFC and tuning the DMF content in...
