Concurrent Synthesis of High‐Performance Monolayer Transition Metal Disulfides

Abstract

To date, the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) approach has been widely used for the growth of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs). However, the reported CVD methods to synthesize TMDs cannot be used to grow more than one type of TMDs. This work reports a promising CVD technique to concurrently synthesize multiple monolayer transition metal disulfides once. The optoelectrical characterization and high‐resolution transmission electron microscopy show the high quality of monolayer crystals, and, more importantly, there is no mixing between different precursors during the growth process, which has been investigated by considering the gas flow dynamics and concentration distribution of precursors in our setup. This strategy indicates the promising future for the batch production of 2D materials and the concurrent synthesis techniques in standard state‐of‐the‐art complementary metal‐oxide‐semiconductor (CMOS) fabrication technology.
