This letter demonstrates a simple method to achieve high-yields of 1H semiconducting MoS<sub>2</sub> monolayers in concentrated, colloidally-stable aqueous suspension. The method is based on oxidation suppression during the hydrothermal processing step used for metal-to-semiconductor phase reversion. Accompanying DFT calculations on elementary steps in the MoS<sub>2</sub> wet oxidation reaction suggest that a two-site corrosion mechanism is responsible for the observed high reactivity and low st ...[more]
