Abstract
Hollow nanostructures of molybdenum sulfides (MoS<sub>x</sub>, x = 2 or 3) hold great promise as electrode materials for various energy-related systems owing to their attractive electrochemical properties. Recent advances in the synthesis of hollow MoS<sub>x</sub> nanostructures with tailored morphology and composition are introduced, along with their applications in electrochemical energy storage and conversion, including lithium-ion batteries and the electrocatalytic hydrogen-evolution reaction. The importance of structural and compositional engineering on the electrochemical performance of hollow MoS<sub>x</sub> nanostructures is highlighted. Specifically, bare hollow MoS<sub>x</sub> structures, including hollow spheres and hollow polyhedral nanostructures, hollow MoS<sub>x</sub>–carbon composite structures, and hollow transition-metal-incorporated MoS<sub>x</sub> structures are discussed. Finally, a perspective is provided on current challenges and future research directions in this area. © 2016 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim
