Plasma-assisted incorporation of oxygen and oxidation of MoO2-MoS2 core-shell nanostructures is carried for different time durations (30, 45, and 60 min) in O-2 gas plasma in this work. The effects of O-2 plasma on morphological, structural, compositional, and optical properties have been investigated systematically. Both the physical and chemical effects of plasma on the MoS2 shell are observed, whereas the MoO(2 )core remained unaffected. HR-TEM images showed that reactive species had enough energy to break and rupture the MoS2 layers. XPS revealed that the incorporation of O-2 species from plasma resulted in different oxidation states of Mo. The oxygen-incorporated MoS2 in core-shell nanostructure demonstrates excellent hydrogen evolution reaction activity with high stability. A reaction mechanism is proposed describing the changes in morphology of the nanostructured thin films after exposure to O-2 plasma.
