Abstract
Bulk single crystal molybdenum diselenide has been studied for its electronic and thermal transport properties. We perform resistivity measurements with current in-plane (CIP) and current perpendicular to plane (CPP) as a function of temperature. The CIP measurements exhibit metal to semiconductor transition at â31 K. In the semiconducting phase (T > 31 K), the transport is best explained by the variable range hopping (VRH) model. Large magnitude of resistivity in the CPP mode indicates strong structural anisotropy. The Seebeck coefficient as a function of temperature measured in the range of 90â300 K also agrees well with the VRH model. The room temperature Seebeck coefficient is found to be 139 ÎźV/K. VRH fittings of the resistivity and the Seebeck coefficient data indicate high degree of localization.
