Mo1 O2
semiconductorMoO₂ is a transitional metal oxide semiconductor belonging to the molybdenum oxide family, characterized by mixed-valence Mo(IV) oxidation states and semiconductor properties. It is primarily investigated in research and emerging applications for energy storage devices (supercapacitors, batteries), electrochemical sensors, and photocatalytic systems, where its layered crystal structure and electronic properties offer advantages over fully oxidized MoO₃ in terms of conductivity and catalytic activity. Engineers consider MoO₂ when higher electronic conductivity combined with redox activity is needed in thin-film or nanostructured form, particularly in electrochemical and optoelectronic contexts where conventional semiconductors or insulators are inadequate.
