Herein, the TiS2 nanosheets (NSs) are prepared from the TiS2 bulk by the liquid-phase exfoliation to fabricate photoelectrochemical-type (PEC) photodetector. SEM images and Raman spectra show the successful acquisition of the TiS2 NSs. The as-prepared TiS2 photodetector shows self-powered ability with an applicable photoresponsivity that is about 0.37 μA W−1 under zero bias potential and 80 mW cm−2 visible light, and the response time of rise is 0.67 s and the decay time is 2.81 s. In this case, the photodetector is made of ITO-coated polyethylene terephthalate (PET), so it can maintain stable performance under the bending conditions. These results display that the as-prepared photodetector has excellent photoelectric properties, which facilitates the development of TiS2 NSs in optoelectronic devices.
