ABSTRACT
Two-dimensional (2D) materials have been studied as an emerging class of nanomaterials owing to their attractive properties in nearly every field of science and technology. Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is one of the more promising candidates of these atomically thin 2D materials for its technological potential. The facile synthesis of MoS2 remains a matter of broad interest. In this study, MoS2 was synthesized by chemical vapor deposition sulfurization at various temperatures (550 °C, 650 °C, and 750 °C) of either precursor molybdenum metal (Mo) or molybdenum trioxide (MoO3) deposited on silicon/silicon dioxide (Si/SiO2) via e-beam evaporation. Monolayer, bilayer, and few layers sulfurized samples have been grown and verified by Raman, photoluminescence spectroscopy, XRD, XPS, and AFM. MoO3 sulfurization provided monolayer growth in comparison to Mo sulfurization under the same conditions and precursor thicknesses. Optical microscopy showed the homogeneous nature of grown samples. A main finding of this work is that MoO3 sulfurization produced higher quality MoS2 as compared to those grown by an Mo precursor. Device characteristics based on monolayer MoO3 sulfurized MoS2-x include nonvolatile resistive switching with Ion/Ioff ≈ 104 at a relatively low operating bias of ±1 V. In addition, field-effect transistor characteristics revealed p-type material growth with a carrier mobility â¼ 41 cm2 V-1 s-1, which is in contrast to typically observed n-type characteristics.
