Abstract
Softly, softly: A novel modification strategy for layered chalcogenide nanoparticles (NPs) takes advantage of the chalcophilic affinity of Mn 2+. Surface-bound MnO NPs can be selectively bound to the surface of WS2 nanotubes and functionalized with the fluorescent dopamine derivative NBD at room temperature. The MnO NPs can also be reversibly detached from the chalcogenide surface with excess dopamine at elevated temperatures.
