“…CVD is a widely utilized fundamental technology in modern industries, particularly for fabricating electronic devices, and is applied to prepare various functional thin films, 138 including organic polymers, 139,140 graphene, 141,142 h-BN, 143 and 2D transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs). 144,145 In the typical CVD process, the solid precursors are heated to produce vapors for forming the high-quality thin film on the substrate through a particular chemical reaction. The entire process is solvent-free, thereby significantly mitigating concerns related to contact corrosion and chemical contamination.…”

“…With the wide variety of 2D materials with tunable electronic and optoelectronic properties, a wide range of 2D vdWHs and devices may be designed for creating novel photodetectors, light-harvesting devices, and LEDs [52,168]. Among them, infrared photodetectors based on vdWHs have attracted considerable attention due to their high sensitivity and broad detection range [10,12,169].…”

van der Waals heterostructures (vdWHs) are showing considerable potential in both fundamental exploration and practical applications. Built upon the synthetic successes of 2D materials, several synthetic strategies of vdWHs have been developed, allowing the convenient fabrication of diverse vdWHs with decent controllability, quality, and scalability. This review first summarizes the current state of the art in synthetic strategies of vdWHs, which can be categorized as one of the close-to-atomic scale extreme manufacturing, including physical combination, deposition, solvothermal synthesis, and synchronous evolution. Then three major applications and their representative vdWH devices have been reviewed, including electronics (tunneling field effect transistors and 2D contact), optoelectronics (photodetector), and energy conversion (electrocatalysts and metal ion batteries), to unveil the potentials of vdWHs in practical applications and provide the general design principles of functional vdWHs for different applications. Besides, moiré superlattices based on vdWHs are discussed to showcase the importance of vdWHs as a platform for novel condensed matter physics. Finally, the crucial challenges towards ideal vdWHs with high performance are discussed and the outlook for future development are presented. By the systematical integration of synthetic strategies and applications, we hope this review can further light up the rational designs of vdWHs for emerging applications.

“…The layered structure and atomic thickness of TMDs allows for highly efficient omnidirectional light harvesting, which is vital for photovoltaic applications. In contrast, vertical heterostructures scatter and reflect light, which is undesirable in photovoltaic applications [12]. Nevertheless, vertical heterostructures attracted more attention as they can be easily fabricated by transferring and restacking layers.…”

“…Due to the 2D nature of layered materials system, lateral or vertical heterostructures based on layered materials bring even more opportunities. Heterostructures can be formed among layered materials either laterally via chemical bonds or vertically via van der Waals (vdW) interactions, enabling heterojunction devices based on layered materials [12,13]. Lateral chemical hetero-integrated junctions offer advantages such as atomically thin interline, mass production process based on chemical reactions, and unique benefits for electronic and optoelectronic devices.…”

As Moore's law deteriorates, the research and development of new materials system are necessary for moving towards the post Moore’s era. Traditional semiconductor materials, such as silicon, have been the cornerstone of modern technologies for more than half a century. This has been due to the abundant research and engineering on new techniques to continuously enrich silicon-based materials system and, subsequently, to develop better performed silicon based devices. Meanwhile, in emerging post Moore’s era, layered semiconductor materials, such as transition metal dichalcogenides, have piqued the interest of researchers due to their unique electronic and optoelectronic properties to power up the new era of next generation electronics. As a result, techniques to engineer the properties of layered semiconductors have expanded the possibilities of layered semiconductor-based devices. However, there are still few serious limitations on layered semiconductor synthesis and engineering, impeding the utilization of layered semiconductor-based devices for mass applications. As a practical alternative, heterogeneous integration between layered and traditional semiconductors provides valuable opportunities to combine the unique properties of layered semiconductors with well-developed traditional semiconductors materials system. Here, we provide an overview of the comparative coherence between layered and traditional semiconductors, starting with transition metal dichalcogenides as the representation of layered semiconductors. We highlight the meaningful opportunities presented by the heterogeneous integration of layered semiconductors with traditional semiconductors, which might be the optimum strategy for emerging semiconductor research community and chip industry in the next few decades.
