Vacuum level dependent photoluminescence in chemical vapor deposition-grown monolayer MoS 2.

ABSTRACT: The stronger photoluminescence (PL) in chemical vapor deposition (CVD) grown monolayer MoS2 has been attributed to its high crystal quality compared with that in mechanically exfoliated (ME) crystal, which is contrary to the cognition that the ME crystal usually have better crystal quality than that of CVD grown one and it is expected with a better optical quality. In this report, the reason of abnormally strong PL spectra in CVD grown monolayer crystal is systematically investigated by studying the in-situ opto-electrical exploration at various environments for both of CVD and ME samples. High resolution transmission electron microscopy is used to investigate their crystal qualities. The stronger PL in CVD grown crystal is due to the high p-doping effect of adsorbates induced rebalance of exciton/trion emission. The first principle calculations are carried out to explore the interaction between adsorbates in ambient and defects sites in MoS2, which is consistent to the experimental phenomenon and further confirm our proposed mechanisms.

Fermi-Level Modulation of Chemical Vapor Deposition-Grown Monolayer Graphene via Nanoparticles to Macromolecular Dopants.

Project description:It is critical to modulate the Fermi level of graphene for the development of high-performance electronic and optoelectronic devices. Here, we have demonstrated the modulation of the Fermi level of chemical vapor deposition (CVD)-grown monolayer graphene (MLG) via doping with nanoparticles to macromolecules such as titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs), nitric acid (HNO3), octadecyltrimethoxysilane (OTS) self-assembled monolayer (SAM), and poly(3,4-ethylene-dioxythiophene):polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS). The electronic properties of pristine and doped graphene samples were investigated by Raman spectroscopy and electrical transport measurements. The right shifting of G and 2D peaks and reduction in 2D to G peak intensity ratio (I 2D/I G) assured that the dopants induced a p-type doping effect. Upon doping, the shifting of the Dirac point towards positive voltage validates the increment of the hole concentration in graphene and thus downward shift of the Fermi level. More importantly, the combination of HNO3/TiO2 NP doping on graphene yields a substantially larger change in the Fermi level of MLG. Our study may be useful for the development of graphene-based high-performance flexible electronic devices.

Monolayer Single-Crystal 1T'-MoTe2 Grown by Chemical Vapor Deposition Exhibits Weak Antilocalization Effect.

Project description:Growth of transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) monolayers is of interest due to their unique electrical and optical properties. Films in the 2H and 1T phases have been widely studied but monolayers of some 1T'-TMDs are predicted to be large-gap quantum spin Hall insulators, suitable for innovative transistor structures that can be switched via a topological phase transition rather than conventional carrier depletion [ Qian et al. Science 2014 , 346 , 1344 - 1347 ]. Here we detail a reproducible method for chemical vapor deposition of monolayer, single-crystal flakes of 1T'-MoTe2. Atomic force microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy confirm the composition and structure of MoTe2 flakes. Variable temperature magnetotransport shows weak antilocalization at low temperatures, an effect seen in topological insulators and evidence of strong spin-orbit coupling. Our approach provides a pathway to systematic investigation of monolayer, single-crystal 1T'-MoTe2 and implementation in next-generation nanoelectronic devices.

Two-Step Growth of Uniform Monolayer MoS<sub>2</sub> Nanosheets by Metal-Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition.

Project description:To achieve large area growth of transition metal dichalcogenides of uniform monolayer thickness, we demonstrate metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) growth under low pressure followed by a high-temperature sulfurization process under atmospheric pressure (AP). Following sulfurization, the MOCVD-grown continuous MoS2 film transforms into compact triangular crystals of uniform monolayer thickness as confirmed from the sharp distinct photoluminescence peak at 1.8 eV. Raman and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies confirm that the structural disorders and chalcogen vacancies inherent to the as-grown MOCVD film are substantially healed and carbon/oxygen contaminations are heavily suppressed. The as-grown MOCVD film has a Mo/S ratio of 1:1.6 and an average defect length of ∼1.56 nm, which improve to 1:1.97 and ∼21 nm, respectively, upon sulfurization. The effect of temperature and duration of the sulfurization process on the morphology and stoichiometry of the grown film is investigated in detail. Compared to the APCVD growth, this two-step growth process shows more homogenous distribution of the triangular monolayer MoS2 domains across the entire substrate, while demonstrating comparable electrical performance.

Top-gated chemical vapor deposition grown graphene transistors with current saturation.

Project description:Graphene transistors are of considerable interest for radio frequency (rf) applications. In general, transistors with large transconductance and drain current saturation are desirable for rf performance, which is however nontrivial to achieve in graphene transistors. Here we report high-performance top-gated graphene transistors based on chemical vapor deposition (CVD) grown graphene with large transconductance and drain current saturation. The graphene transistors were fabricated with evaporated high dielectric constant material (HfO(2)) as the top-gate dielectrics. Length scaling studies of the transistors with channel length from 5.6 ?m to 100 nm show that complete current saturation can be achieved in 5.6 ?m devices and the saturation characteristics degrade as the channel length shrinks down to the 100-300 nm regime. The drain current saturation was primarily attributed to drain bias induced shift of the Dirac points. With the selective deposition of HfO(2) gate dielectrics, we have further demonstrated a simple scheme to realize a 300 nm channel length graphene transistors with self-aligned source-drain electrodes to achieve the highest transconductance of 250 ?S/?m reported in CVD graphene to date.

Ge nanopillar solar cells epitaxially grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition.

Project description:Radial junction solar cells with vertically aligned wire arrays have been widely studied to improve the power conversion efficiency. In this work, we report the first Ge nanopillar solar cell. Nanopillar arrays are selectively patterned on p-type Ge (100) substrates using nanosphere lithography and deep reactive ion etching processes. Nanoscale radial and planar junctions are realized by an n-type Ge emitter layer which is epitaxially grown by MOCVD using isobutylgermane. In situ epitaxial surface passivation is employed using an InGaP layer to avoid high surface recombination rates and Fermi level pinning. High quality n-ohmic contact is realized by protecting the top contact area during the nanopillar patterning. The short circuit current density and the power conversion efficiency of the Ge nanopillar solar cell are demonstrated to be improved up to 18 and 30%, respectively, compared to those of the Ge solar cell with a planar surface.

Controlling interlayer excitons in MoS2 layers grown by chemical vapor deposition.

Project description:Combining MoS2 monolayers to form multilayers allows to access new functionalities. Deterministic assembly of large area van der Waals structures requires concrete indicators of successful interlayer coupling in bilayers grown by chemical vapor deposition. In this work, we examine the correlation between the stacking order and the interlayer coupling of valence states in both as-grown MoS2 homobilayer samples and in artificially stacked bilayers from monolayers, all grown by chemical vapor deposition. We show that hole delocalization over the bilayer is only allowed in 2H stacking and results in strong interlayer exciton absorption and also in a larger A-B exciton separation as compared to 3R bilayers. Comparing 2H and 3R reflectivity spectra allows to extract an interlayer coupling energy of about t??=?49?meV. Beyond DFT calculations including excitonic effects confirm signatures of efficient interlayer coupling for 2H stacking in agreement with our experiments.

High Performance Hall Sensors Built on Chemical Vapor Deposition-Grown Bilayer Graphene.

Project description:Graphene has been considered as an excellent channel material for constructing magnetic sensors or Hall elements with high sensitivity and linearity. Compared to intensively reported graphene Hall elements (GHEs) fabricated on monolayer graphene, the exploration on bilayer graphene-based Hall elements is very rare. Here, we first investigate the performance and potential of Hall elements built on chemical vapor deposition-grown bilayer graphene. Without applying any gate voltage, the bilayer GHEs exhibit a typical voltage sensitivity of 119 mV/VT and current sensitivity of 397 V/AT, which are higher than those in the monolayer GHEs, indicating the better performance in practical applications. Moreover, the bilayer GHEs present obviously lower noise and then the minimum detection magnetic field compared to the monolayer ones. Hall elements built on bilayer graphene show certain unique advantages and can be used as an important supplement to mainstreaming monolayer GHEs.

Temperature-Dependent Photoluminescence Property of Self-Assembly ZnO Nanowires via Chemical Vapor Deposition Combined with Hydrothermal Pretreatment.

Project description:Vertically aligned ZnO nanowires with high aspect ratio were prepared by chemical vapor deposition on Si substrate, which had been catalyzed by the polar plane in [0001] direction of ZnO nanorods prepared by the hydrothermal method. Morphology and structure characterizations showed that the as-grown nanowires had the single-crystal hexagonal wurtzite structure with a [0001] growth direction. Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) measurement indicated the as-grown ZnO nanowires had a good deal of oxygen vacancies owing to the high operation temperature. Temperature-dependent photoluminescence measurement revealed that the peak of near-band-edge emission shifted from 380 to 387 nm with the increase of temperature from 150 to 300 K. The high intensity of the green peak at 525 nm highlighted the potential application in visible light emitting diodes.

Synthesis of Monolayer MoSe2 with Controlled Nucleation via Reverse-Flow Chemical Vapor Deposition.

Project description:Two-dimensional (2D) layered semiconductor materials, such as transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), have attracted considerable interests because of their intriguing optical and electronic properties. Controlled growth of TMDC crystals with large grain size and atomically smooth surface is indeed desirable but remains challenging due to excessive nucleation. Here, we have synthesized high-quality monolayer, bilayer MoSe2 triangular crystals, and continuous thin films with controlled nucleation density via reverse-flow chemical vapor deposition (CVD). High crystallinity and good saturated absorption performance of MoSe2 have been systematically investigated and carefully demonstrated. Optimized nucleation and uniform morphology could be achieved via fine-tuning reverse-flow switching time, growth time and temperature, with corresponding growth kinetics proposed. Our work opens up a new approach for controllable synthesis of monolayer TMDC crystals with high yield and reliability, which promote surface/interface engineering of 2D semiconductors towards van der Waals heterostructure device applications.

Large-Area WS2 Film with Big Single Domains Grown by Chemical Vapor Deposition.

Project description:High-quality WS2 film with the single domain size up to 400 ?m was grown on Si/SiO2 wafer by atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition. The effects of some important fabrication parameters on the controlled growth of WS2 film have been investigated in detail, including the choice of precursors, tube pressure, growing temperature, holding time, the amount of sulfur powder, and gas flow rate. By optimizing the growth conditions at one atmospheric pressure, we obtained tungsten disulfide single domains with an average size over 100 ?m. Raman spectra, atomic force microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy provided direct evidence that the WS2 film had an atomic layer thickness and a single-domain hexagonal structure with a high crystal quality. And the photoluminescence spectra indicated that the tungsten disulfide films showed an evident layer-number-dependent fluorescence efficiency, depending on their energy band structure. Our study provides an important experimental basis for large-area, controllable preparation of atom-thick tungsten disulfide thin film and can also expedite the development of scalable high-performance optoelectronic devices based on WS2 film.
