“…Thin films of MoS 2 can be prepared by a variety of methods such as physical exfoliation, , chemical exfoliation, physical vapor deposition, and chemical vapor deposition (CVD). − CVD of MoS 2 generally involves the use of coreactant systems with a molybdenum source, such as MoO 3 or Mo(CO) 6 , and a sulfur source, which is most commonly elemental sulfur. ,− Other sulfur sources used in the deposition of MoS 2 include the toxic and hazardous compounds H 2 S, , CS 2 , and Et 2 S. , Thin films can also be deposited from single-source precursors that contain all of the atoms of the desired film in a single compound. A few single-source precursors for the chemical vapor deposition of MoS 2 have been reported, including Mo(S t Bu) 4 , Mo(S 2 CNR 2 ) 4 (R = Et, n Bu), [MoCl 4 ( n Bu 2 S) 2 ], and Mo(S 2 CMe) 4 …”
