Abstract The transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) is a family compounds with a formula of MX2, where M and X represent a transition metal and chalcogen, respectively. TMDs are two-dimensional (2D) layered materials like graphene, with a covalently bonded hexagonal network in layers stacked by weak van der Waals forces between layers. However, the zero band gap of pristine graphene seriously restricted its application in most electronic and optoelectronic fields, while the MoS2 submits to a transition from indirect band gap in bulk to a direct band gap in single atom layer. Further transport measurements demonstrate that the field-effect transistors made of TMDs single layer possess high mobility and large on/off ratio. Nevertheless, the applications of TMDs are limited due to their poor light absorption and emission, specially in some light-driven related field. Hence, for the sake of acquiring more superior optoelectronic materials, scientists creatively introduced a heterogeneous integration of the noble metal nanoparticles (NM NPs) and 2D TMDs thin films and utilize the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) of NM NPs as a excitation pump to strengthen the photoluminescence(PL) intensity of 2D TMDs. The hybrids of NM NPs and 2D TMDs exhibit unique optical, electronic, and photoelectrical properties, which hold great promise for their application in expansive fields, including optics, biology, memory materials, electronics and catalysis. Currently, with regard to the studies on the structure of NM NPs-2D TMDs hybrids, researchers mainly take advantages of diverse structures of NM NPs, including nanospheres, nanorods, nano-islands, nanodisks, nano-antennas and nano core-shell structures to enhance the light absorption, and excite the surface plasmon polaritons in the nm nanostructures, then transfer the energy to 2D TMDs for stimulating the high-intensity light absorption and light emission, and finally realize the modulation of its optical properties. Study on the enhancement characteristics of photoluminescence and photocurrent of the hybrids nanostructures have been carried out as well. To date, the method of fabricating hybrids nanostructures are mainly concentrated on electron beam etching, spin coating, infiltration, etc. However, those hybrids nanostructures built by the me-thods mentioned above exist some defects, for example, the deposition position of the NM NPs is uncontrollable, and the disordered nanoparticles are easily deposited at the edges and defects of the TMDs, resulting in rough thickness of the nanoparticles film on the surface, which restrict their applications to a certain extent. In addition, there is little investigations relating to the impact of the structure parameters like the morphology, size, arrangement and spacing of the NM NPs on photoelectricity properties of the hybrids nanostructures. Herein, this article rovides a review on several construction methods of the NM NPs-2D TMDs hybrids, comprehensive analysis on their merits and demerits, and discussion of the changes of PL and PC intensities compared with TMDs. Finally, based on the research direction of our group, this article looks into the distance of future developments and challenges for the hybrids of NM NPs and 2D TMDs.
