Abstract
Dimensionality of materials is closely related to their physical properties. For two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors such as monolayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), converting them from 2D nanosheets to one-dimensional (1D) nanoscrolls could contribute to remarkable electronic and optoelectronic properties, yet the rolling-up process still lacks sufficient controllability, which limits the development of their device applications. Herein we report a modified solvent evaporation-induced rolling process that halts at intermediate states and achieve MoS2 nanoscrolls with high yield and decent axial uniformity. The accordingly fabricated nanoscroll memories exhibit an on/off ratio of ∼104 and a retention time exceeding 103 s and can realize multilevel storage with pulsed gate voltages. Such open-end, high-curvature, and hollow 1D nanostructures provide new possibilities to manipulate the hysteresis windows and, consequently, the charge storage characteristics of nanoscale field-effect transistors, thereby holding great promise for the development of miniaturized memories.
