Abstract
Over the past decade, research on atomically thin two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) has expanded rapidly due to their unique properties such as high carrier mobility, significant excitonic effects, and strong spin-orbit couplings. Considerable attention from both scientific and industrial communities has fully fueled the exploration of TMDs toward practical applications. Proposed scenarios, such as ultrascaled transistors, on-chip photonics, flexible optoelectronics, and efficient electrocatalysis, critically depend on the scalable production of large-area TMD films. Correspondingly, substantial efforts have been devoted to refining the synthesizing methodology of 2D TMDs, which brought the field to a stage that necessitates a comprehensive summary. In this Review, we give a systematic overview of the basic designs and significant advancements in large-area epitaxial growth of TMDs. We first sketch out their fundamental structures and diverse properties. Subsequent discussion encompasses the state-of-the-art wafer-scale production designs, single-crystal epitaxial strategies, and techniques for structure modification and postprocessing. Additionally, we highlight the future directions for application-driven material fabrication and persistent challenges, aiming to inspire ongoing exploration along a revolution in the modern semiconductor industry.

Abstract
Most metal chalcogenides exhibit layered structures and anisotropic morphologies such as nanosheets, nanoplates, and nanotubes, as well as nanosheet-assembled nanoflowers. Unconventional morphologies such as nanorings may bring appealing properties to functional materials, but they have not been realized with metal chalcogenides. Herein, we report that Sn0.2Mo0.8S2 nanorings with a mixed 1T/2H phase were synthesized by etching SnS2 cores from Sn1-xMoxS2/SnS2 lateral heterostructures. Flexible electronic sensors based on these Sn0.2Mo0.8S2 nanorings exhibited excellent temperature and strain sensing performance, with a negative temperature coefficient of resistance of -0.013 °C-1 and a minimum detectable strain of 0.09%. In addition, the dual-functional flexible electronic sensors with easy fabrication and good wearability showed great promise for tracking human activities and monitoring inapparent health-related signals.

Abstract
A novel and efficient photocatalyst, Cu2WS4/MoS2-Au plasmonic Step-scheme (S-scheme) heterojunction, was constructed for the first time and applied to remove environmental pollutants. Among all the prepared photocatalysts, the. Cu2WS4/MoS2-Au-5 exhibited the highest catalytic activity with an 89.1% reduction efficiency for Cr6+ and a 98.7% oxidation efficiency for Benzophenone-1 (BP-1) under visible light irradiation. The Cu2WS4/MoS2-Au photocatalyst exhibits stable performance and efficient photocatalytic activity due to effective charge separation, enhanced light absorption from localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of gold nanoparticles, and the formation of an S-scheme heterojunction with strong oxidation-reduction capabilities. In addition, through analysis of experiments and theoretical calculations, it is speculated that the Cu2WS4/MoS2-Au follows a typical S-scheme photogenerated carrier transferring mechanism, which is verified by the finite difference time domain simulation, the free radical quenching experiments, the electron paramagnetic resonance analysis and the simulated charge density distribution. More importantly, the simulations of the work function and charge density distribution confirm the built-in electric field and the ohmic junction have been established at the interfaces between the Cu2WS4 and MoS2 (Cu2WS4/MoS2) as well as the interface between MoS2 and Au (MoS2-Au), respectively. The built-in electric field and ohmic junction enable efficient separation of photogenerated electrons and holes, ensuring the superior catalytic oxidation and reduction activities of the Cu2WS4/MoS2-Au photocatalyst. Finally, we propose a photocatalytic mechanism for the Cu2WS4/MoS2-Au plasmonic S-scheme heterojunction based on experimental results and simulated calculations. The research results of this study are significance for the development of the plasmonic S-scheme photocatalytic system.

Rapid and simultaneous multiple detection of a tripledemic using a dual-gate oxide semiconductor thin-film transistor-based immunosensor. Biosens Bioelectron 2023; 241:115700.

Abstract
The simultaneous infection with a tripledemic-simultaneous infection with influenza A pH1N1 virus (Flu), severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)-necessitates the development of accurate and fast multiplex diagnostic tests. The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has emphasized the importance of virus detection. Field-effect transistor (FET)-based immuno-biosensors have a short detection time and do not require labeling or polymerase chain reaction. This study demonstrates the rapid, sensitive detection of influenza A pH1N1, SARS-CoV-2, and RSV using a multiplex immunosensor based on a dual-gate oxide semiconductor thin-film transistor (TFT), a type of FET. The dual-gate oxide TFT was modified by adjusting both top and bottom gate insulators to improve capacitive coupling to approximately 120-fold amplification, exhibiting a high pH sensitivity of about 10 V/pH. The dual-gate oxide TFT-based immunosensor detected the target proteins (hemagglutinin (HA) protein of Flu, spike 1 (S1) protein of SARS-CoV-2, and fusion protein of RSV) of each virus, with a limit of detection of approximately 1 fg/mL. Cultured viruses in phosphate-buffered saline or artificial saliva and clinical nasopharynx samples were detected in 1-μL sample volumes within 60 s. This promising diagnosis could be potentially as point-of-care tests to facilitate a prompt response to future pandemics with high sensitivity and multiplexed detection without pretreatment.

Abstract
We present a portable multiplexed biosensor platform based on the extended gate field-effect transistor and demonstrate its amplified response thanks to gold nanoparticle-based bioconjugates introduced as a part of the immunoassay. The platform comprises a disposable chip hosting an array of 32 extended gate electrodes, a readout module based on a single transistor operating in constant charge mode, and a multiplexer to scan sensing electrodes one-by-one. Although employing only off-the-shelf electronic components, our platform achieves sensitivities comparable to fully customized nanofabricated potentiometric sensors. In particular, it reaches a detection limit of 0.2 fM for the pure molecular assay when sensing horseradish peroxidase-linked secondary antibody (∼0.4 nM reached by standard microplate methods). Furthermore, with the gold nanoparticle bioconjugation format, we demonstrate ca. 5-fold amplification of the potentiometric response compared to a pure molecular assay, at the detection limit of 13.3 fM. Finally, we elaborate on the mechanism of this amplification and propose that nanoparticle-mediated disruption of the diffusion barrier layer is the main contributor to the potentiometric signal enhancement. These results show the great potential of our portable, sensitive, and cost-efficient biosensor for multidimensional diagnostics in the clinical and laboratory settings, including e.g., serological tests or pathogen screening.

Abstract
Olfaction, a primal and effective sense, profoundly impacts our emotions and instincts. This sensory system plays a crucial role in detecting volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and realizing the chemical environment. Animals possess superior olfactory systems compared to humans. Thus, taking inspiration from nature, artificial olfaction aims to achieve a similar level of excellence in VOC detection. In this study, we present the development of an artificial olfaction sensor utilizing a nanostructured bio-field-effect transistor (bio-FET) based on transition metal dichalcogenides and the Drosophila odor-binding protein LUSH. To create an effective sensing platform, we prepared a hexagonal nanoporous structure of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) using block copolymer lithography and selective etching techniques. This structure provides plenty of active sites for the integration of the LUSH protein, enabling enhanced binding with ethanol (EtOH) for detection purposes. The coupling of the biomolecule with EtOH influences the bio-FETs potential, which generates indicative electrical signals. By mimicking the sniffing techniques observed in Drosophila, these bio-FETs exhibit an impressive limit of detection of 10-6% for EtOH, with high selectivity, sensitivity, and detection ability even in realistic environments. This bioelectric sensor demonstrates substantial potential in the field of artificial olfaction, offering advancements in VOC detection.

[PMID: 37453927 DOI: 10.1002/adma.202303272] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2023] [Revised: 06/21/2023] [Accepted: 07/03/2023] [Indexed: 07/18/2023]
Abstract
The unique electrical and optical properties of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) make them attractive nanomaterials for optoelectronic applications, especially optical sensors. However, the optical characteristics of these materials are dependent on the number of layers. Monolayer TMDs have a direct bandgap that provides higher photoresponsivity compared to multilayer TMDs with an indirect bandgap. Nevertheless, multilayer TMDs are more appropriate for various photodetection applications due to their high carrier density, broad spectral response from UV to near-infrared, and ease of large-scale synthesis. Therefore, this review focuses on the modification of the optical properties of devices based on indirect bandgap TMDs and their emerging applications. Several successful developments in optical devices are examined, including band structure engineering, device structure optimization, and heterostructures. Furthermore, it introduces cutting-edge techniques and future directions for optoelectronic devices based on multilayer TMDs.

Abstract
The future of medical diagnostics calls for portable biosensors at the point of care, aiming to improve healthcare by reducing costs, improving access, and increasing quality-what is called the 'triple aim'. Developing point-of-care sensors that provide high sensitivity, detect multiple analytes, and provide real time measurements can expand access to medical diagnostics for all. Field-effect transistor (FET)-based biosensors have several advantages, including ultrahigh sensitivity, label-free and amplification-free detection, reduced cost and complexity, portability, and large-scale multiplexing. They can also be integrated into wearable or implantable devices and provide continuous, real-time monitoring of analytesin vivo, enabling early detection of biomarkers for disease diagnosis and management. This review analyzes advances in the sensitivity, parallelization, and reusability of FET biosensors, benchmarks the limit of detection of the state of the art, and discusses the challenges and opportunities of FET biosensors for future healthcare applications.

Abstract
Since the exosomal protein level is related to many diseases, sensitive detection of exosomal protein is highly desirable. Here, we describe a polymer-sorted high-purity semiconducting carbon nanotubes (CNTs) films-based field-effect transistor (FET) biosensor for ultrasensitive and label-free detection of MUC1, a transmembrane protein highly expressed in breast cancer exosomes. Polymer-sorted semiconducting CNTs hold advantages including high purity (>99%), high CNT concentration, and short processing time (<1 h), but they are difficult to be stably functionalized with biomolecules because of lacking hanging bonds on their surface. To solve this issue, poly-lysine (PLL) was employed to modify the CNT films after they were deposited on the sensing channel surface of the fabricated FET chip. To specifically recognize the exosomal protein, sulfhydryl aptamer probes were immobilized on the gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) surface that was assembled on PLL substrate. The aptamer-modified CNT FET was capable of sensitively and selectively detecting exosomal MUC1 as high as 0.34 fg/mL. Moreover, the CNT FET biosensor was able to recognize breast cancer patients from healthy individuals by comparing the expression level of exosomal MUC1. The developed CNT FET biosensor is expected to be a novel assay for early diagnosis of cancer.

Abstract
Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a recognized biomarker for lung cancer and can be used for early detection. However, the clinical value of CEA is not fully realized due to the rigorous requirement for high-sensitivity and wide-range detection methods. Field-effect transistor (FET) biosensors, as one of the potentially powerful platforms, may detect CEA with a significantly higher sensitivity than conventional clinical testing equipment, while their sensitivity and detection range for CEA are far below the requirement for early detection. Here, we construct a floating gate FET biosensor to detect CEA based on a semiconducting carbon nanotube (CNT) film combined with an undulating yttrium oxide (Y2O3) dielectric layer as the biosensing interface. Utilizing an undulating biosensing interface, the proposed device showed a wider detection range and optimized sensitivity and detection limit, which benefited from an increase of probe-binding sites on the sensing interface and an increase of electric double-layer capacitance, respectively. The outcomes of analytical studies confirm that the undulating Y2O3 provided the desired biosensing surface for probe immobilization and performance optimization of a CNT-FET biosensor toward CEA including a wide detection range from 1 fg/mL to 1 ng/mL, good linearity, and high sensitivity of 72 ag/mL. More crucially, the sensing platform can function normally in the complicated environment of fetal bovine serum, indicating its great promise for early lung cancer screening.

Abstract
2D transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have been successfully developed as novel ubiquitous optoelectronics owing to their excellent electrical and optical characteristics. However, active-matrix image sensors based on TMDs have limitations owing to the difficulty of fabricating large-area integrated circuitry and achieving high optical sensitivity. Herein, a large-area uniform, highly sensitive, and robust image sensor matrix with active pixels consisting of nanoporous molybdenum disulfide (MoS2 ) phototransistors and indium-gallium-zinc oxide (IGZO) switching transistors is reported. Large-area uniform 4-inch wafer-scale bilayer MoS2 films are synthesized by radio-frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering and sulfurization processes and patterned to be a nanoporous structure consisting of an array of periodic nanopores on the MoS2 surface via block copolymer lithography. Edge exposure on the nanoporous bilayer MoS2 induces the formation of subgap states, which promotes a photogating effect to obtain an exceptionally high photoresponsivity of 5.2 × 104 A W-1 . A 4-inch-wafer-scale image mapping is successively achieved using this active-matrix image sensor by controlling the device sensing and switching states. The high-performance active-matrix image sensor is state-of-the-art in 2D material-based integrated circuitry and pixel image sensor applications.

Abstract
Together with the development of two-dimensional (2D) materials, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have become one of the most popular series of model materials for fundamental sciences and practical applications. Due to the ever-growing requirements of customization and multi-function, dozens of modulated structures have been introduced in TMDs. In this review, we present a systematic and comprehensive overview of the structure modulation of TMDs, including point, linear and out-of-plane structures, following and updating the conventional classification for silicon and related bulk semiconductors. In particular, we focus on the structural characteristics of modulated TMD structures and analyse the corresponding root causes. We also summarize the recent progress in modulating methods, mechanisms, properties and applications based on modulated TMD structures. Finally, we demonstrate challenges and prospects in the structure modulation of TMDs and forecast potential directions about what and how breakthroughs can be achieved.

Abstract
There has been an exponential surge in reports on two-dimensional (2D) materials ever since the discovery of graphene in 2004. Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are a class of 2D materials where weak van der Waals force binds individual covalently bonded X-M-X layers (where M is the transition metal and X is the chalcogen), making layer-controlled synthesis possible. These individual building blocks (single-layer TMDs) transition from indirect to direct band gaps and have fascinating optical and electronic properties. Layer-dependent opto-electrical properties, along with the existence of finite band gaps, make single-layer TMDs superior to the well-known graphene that paves the way for their applications in many areas. Ultra-fast response, high on/off ratio, planar structure, low operational voltage, wafer scale synthesis capabilities, high surface-to-volume ratio, and compatibility with standard fabrication processes makes TMDs ideal candidates to replace conventional semiconductors, such as silicon, etc., in the new-age electrical, electronic, and opto-electronic devices. Besides, TMDs can be potentially utilized in single molecular sensing for early detection of different biomarkers, gas sensors, photodetector, and catalytic applications. The impact of COVID-19 has given rise to an upsurge in demand for biosensors with real-time detection capabilities. TMDs as active or supporting biosensing elements exhibit potential for real-time detection of single biomarkers and, hence, show promise in the development of point-of-care healthcare devices. In this review, we provide a historical survey of 2D TMD-based biosensors for the detection of bio analytes ranging from bacteria, viruses, and whole cells to molecular biomarkers via optical, electronic, and electrochemical sensing mechanisms. Current approaches and the latest developments in the study of healthcare devices using 2D TMDs are discussed. Additionally, this review presents an overview of the challenges in the area and discusses the future perspective of 2D TMDs in the field of biosensing for healthcare devices.

Abstract
High-performance and low-power field-effect transistors (FETs) are the basis of integrated circuit fields, which undoubtedly require researchers to find better film channel layer materials and improve device structure technology. MoS2 has recently shown a special two-dimensional (2D) structure and superior photoelectric performance, and it has shown new potential for next-generation electronics. However, the natural atomic layer thickness and large specific surface area of MoS2 make the contact interface and dielectric interface have a great influence on the performance of MoS2 FET. Thus, we focus on its main performance improvement strategies, including optimizing the contact behavior, regulating the conductive channel, and rationalizing the dielectric layer. On this basis, we summarize the applications of 2D MoS2 FETs in key and emerging fields, specifically involving logic, RF circuits, optoelectronic devices, biosensors, piezoelectric devices, and synaptic transistors. As a whole, we discuss the state-of-the-art, key merits, and limitations of each of these 2D MoS2-based FET systems, and prospects in the future.

Abstract
The disulfide compounds of molybdenum (MoS2 ) are layered van der Waals materials that exhibit a rich array of polymorphic structures. MoS2 can be roughly divided into semiconductive phase and metallic phase according to the difference in electron filling state of the 4d orbital of Mo atom. The two phases show completely different properties, leading to their diverse applications in biosensors. But to some extent, they compensate for each other. This review first introduces the relationship between phase state and the chemical/physical structures and properties of MoS2 . Furthermore, the synthetic methods are summarized and the preparation strategies for metastable phases are highlighted. In addition, examples of electronic and chemical property designs of MoS2 by means of doping and surface modification are outlined. Finally, studies on biosensors based on MoS2 in recent years are presented and classified, and the roles of MoS2 with different phases are highlighted. This review offers references for the selection of materials to construct different types of biosensors based on MoS2 , and provides inspiration for sensing performance enhancement.
