Abstract:Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are two-dimensional (2D) layered materials covalently bonded within the layers, but with only weak van-der-Waals (vdW) interactions between individual monolayers [1]. Substantial progress has been made in better understanding of these materials, from the nature of their defects [2] to the achievement of large area epitaxially grown films [3-5]. These materials have attracted great attention for applications such as next-generation electronics - including sub-60 mV sub-th… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
