Abstract

Semiconducting two-dimensional (2D) materials, particularly extremely thin molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) films, are attracting considerable attention from academia and industry owing to their distinctive optical and electrical properties. Here, we present the direct growth of a MoS2 monolayer with unprecedented spatial and structural uniformity across an entire 8 inch SiO2/Si wafer. The influences of growth pressure, ambient gases (Ar, H2), and S/Mo molar flow ratio on the MoS2 layered growth were explored by considering the domain size, nucleation sites, morphology, and impurity incorporation. Monolayer MoS2-based field effect transistors achieve an electron mobility of 0.47 cm2 V−1 s−1 and on/off current ratio of 5.4 × 104. This work demonstrates the potential for reliable wafer-scale production of 2D MoS2 for practical applications in next-generation electronic and optical devices.
