Abstract

Monolayer (ML) MoS2 has become a very promising two-dimensional material for photorelated applications, potentially serving as the basis for an ultrathin photodetector, switching device, or transistors because of its strong interaction with light in ambient conditions. Establishing the impact of individual ambient gas components on the optical properties of MoS2 is a necessary step toward application development. By using in situ Raman microspectroscopy with an environment-controlled reaction cell, the photoluminescence (PL) intensity of chemical vapor deposition (CVD)-grown MoS2 MLs is monitored at different intralayer locations under ambient and controlled gas environments, such as N2, O2, and H2O. This new approach enables us to monitor the optical properties of MoS2 at different locations on the flakes and separate the role of photoreaction of various gases during laser irradiation. Upon mild photoirradiation in ambient conditions, the PL intensity in the interior of the ML MoS2 flakes remains unchang...
