Hafnium disulfide is an inorganic compound of hafnium and sulfur. It is a layered dichalcogenide with the chemical formula is HfS₂. A few atomic layers of this material can be exfoliated using the standard Scotch Tape technique (see graphene) and used for the fabrication of a field-effect transistor.^[4] High-yield synthesis of HfS₂ has also been demonstrated using liquid phase exfoliation, resulting in the production of stable few-layer HfS₂ flakes.^[5] Hafnium disulfide powder can be produced by reacting hydrogen sulfide and hafnium oxides at 500–1300 °C.^[6]
