Phase transition in two dimensional molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) can be induced by several methods and has been investigated for decades. Alkali metal insertion of MoS2had been proved an effective method to cause phase transition early in 1970s, and has been gaining renewed interest recently, due to the possible application of MoS2in energy storage. The alkali metal intercalation of MoS2has been studied by various techniques, among whichin-situtransmission electron microscopy (TEM) provides unique capability of real time resolving the structural evolution of the materials at high spatial resolutions. Here byin-situTEM technique we investigated the structural evolution of MoS2upon lithium and sodium intercalation, along with transformation of the nanosheet and variation of the electron diffraction patterns. The intercalation process is accompanied by emergence of superstructures, which exist in several forms. The ion intercalation results in phase transition of MoS2from 2H to 1T, and the driving mechanism of the phase transition are discussed. The work provides a more comprehensive understanding of ion intercalation induced phase transition of MoS2.
