Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) MoS2 is an excellent candidate channel material for next-generation integrated circuit (IC) transistors. However, the reliability of MoS2 is of great concern due to the serious threat of vacancy defects, such as sulfur vacancies (VS). Evaluating the impact of vacancy defects on the service reliability of MoS2 transistors is crucial, but it has always been limited by the difficulty in systematically tracking and analyzing the changes and effects of vacancy defects in the service environment. Here, a simulated initiator is established for deciphering the evolution of vacancy defects in MoS2 and their influence on the reliability of transistors. The results indicate that VS below 1.3% are isolated by slow enrichment during initiation. Over 1.3% of VS tend to enrich in pairs and over 3.5% of the enriched VS easily evolve into nanopores. The enriched VS with electron doping in the channel cause the threshold voltage (Vth) negative drift approaching 6 V, while the expanded nanopores initiate the Vth roll-off and punch-through of transistors. Finally, sulfur steam deposition has been proposed to constrain VS enrichment, and reliable MoS2 transistors are constructed. Our research provides a new method for deciphering and identifying the impact of defects.

Abstract
Electronic devices composed of semiconducting two-dimensional (2D) materials and ultrathin 2D metallic electrode materials, accompanying synergistic interactions and extraordinary properties, are becoming highly promising for future flexible and transparent electronic and optoelectronic device applications. Unlike devices with bulk metal electrode and 2D channel materials, devices with ultrathin 2D electrode and 2D channel are susceptible to chemical reactions in both channel and electrode surface due to the high surface to volume ratio of the 2D structures. However, so far, the effect of doping was primary concerned on the channel component, and there is lack of understanding in terms of how to modulate electrical properties of devices by engineering electrical properties of both the metallic electrode and the semiconducting channel. Here, we propose the novel, one-pot doping of the field-effect transistor (FET) based on 2D molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) channel and ultrathin copper sulfide (CuS) electrodes under mild iodine gas environment at room temperature, which simultaneously modulates electrical properties of the 2D MoS2channel and 2D CuS electrode in a facile and cost-effective way. After one-pot iodine doping, effective p-type doping of the channel and electrode was observed, which was shown through decreased off current level, improvedIon/Ioffratio and subthreshold swing value. Our results open up possibility for effectively and conveniently modulating electrical properties of FETs made of various 2D semiconductors and ultrathin contact materials without causing any detrimental damage.

Abstract
Electronic devices based on two-dimensional (2D) MoS2 show great promise as future building blocks in electronic circuits due to their outstanding electrical, optical, and mechanical properties. Despite the high importance of doping of these 2D materials for designing field-effect transistors (FETs) and logic circuits, a simple and controllable doping methodology still needs to be developed in order to tailor their device properties. Here, we found a simple and effective chemical doping strategy for MoS2 monolayers using CuCl2 solution. The CuCl2 solution was simply spin-coated on MoS2 with different concentrations under ambient conditions for effectively p-doping the MoS2 monolayers. This was systematically analyzed using various spectroscopic measurements using Raman, photoluminescence, and X-ray photoelectron and electrical measurements by observing the change in transfer and output characteristics of MoS2 FETs before and after CuCl2 doping, showing effective p-type doping behaviors as observed through the shift of threshold voltages (Vth) and reducing the ON and OFF current level. Our results open the possibility of providing effective and simple doping strategies for 2D materials and other nanomaterials without causing any detrimental damage.

Abstract
We present a theory of phonon-drag thermopower,Sxxg, in MoS2monolayer at a low-temperature regime in the presence of a quantizing magnetic fieldB. Our calculations forSxxgconsider the electron-acoustic phonon interaction via deformation potential (DP) and piezoelectric (PE) couplings for longitudinal (LA) and transverse (TA) phonon modes. The unscreened TA-DP is found to dominateSxxgover other mechanisms. TheSxxgis found to oscillate with the magnetic field where the lifting effect of the valley and spin degeneracies in MoS2monolayer has been clearly observed. An enhancedSxxgwith a peak value of∼1mV K-1at aboutT = 10 K is predicted, which is closer to the zero field experimental observation. In the Bloch-Grüneisen regime the temperature dependence ofSxxggives the power-lawSxxg∝Tδe, whereδevaries marginally around 3 and 5 for unscreened and screened couplings, respectively. In addition,Sxxgis smaller for larger electron densityne. The power factor PF is found to increase with temperatureT, decrease withne, and oscillate withB. The prediction of an increase of thermal conductivity with temperature and the magnetic field is responsible for the limit of the figure of merit (ZT). At a particular magnetic field and temperature,ZTcan be maximized by optimizing electron density. By fixingne=1012cm-2, the highestZTis found to be 0.57 atT = 5.8 K andB = 12.1 T. Our findings are compared with those in graphene and MoS2for the zero-magnetic field.

Abstract
Surface charge transfer doping has attracted much attention in modulating the optical and electrical behavior of 2D transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), where finding controllable and efficient dopants is crucial. Here, 1,1,2,2-tetraphenylethylene (TPE) derivative molecules with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) effect were selected as adjustable dopants. By designing nitro and methoxyl functional groups and surface coating, controlled p/n-type doping can be achieved on a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) grown monolayer, MoS2. We investigated the electron transfer behavior between these two dopants and MoS2 with fluorescence, Raman, X-ray photoelectron spectra and transient absorption spectra. 1,1,2,2-Tetrakis(4-nitrophenyl)ethane (TPE-4NO2) with a negative charge aggregation can be a donor to transfer electrons to MoS2, while 1,1,2,2-Tetrakis(4-methoxyphenyl)ethane (TPE-4OCH3) is the opposite and electron-accepting. Density functional theory calculations further explain and confirm these experimental results. This work shows a new way to select suitable dopants for TMDCs, which is beneficial for a wide range of applications in optoelectronic devices.

Abstract
A comprehensive understanding of the energy level alignment mechanisms between two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors and electrodes is currently lacking, but it is a prerequisite for tailoring the interface electronic properties to the requirements of device applications. Here, we use angle-resolved direct and inverse photoelectron spectroscopy to unravel the key factors that determine the level alignment at interfaces between a monolayer of the prototypical 2D semiconductor MoS2 and conductor, semiconductor, and insulator substrates. For substrate work function (Φsub) values below 4.5 eV we find that Fermi level pinning occurs, involving electron transfer to native MoS2 gap states below the conduction band. For Φsub above 4.5 eV, vacuum level alignment prevails but the charge injection barriers do not strictly follow the changes of Φsub as expected from the Schottky-Mott rule. Notably, even the trends of the injection barriers for holes and electrons are different. This is caused by the band gap renormalization of monolayer MoS2 by dielectric screening, which depends on the dielectric constant (εr) of the substrate. Based on these observations, we introduce an expanded Schottky-Mott rule that accounts for band gap renormalization by εr -dependent screening and show that it can accurately predict charge injection barriers for monolayer MoS2. It is proposed that the formalism of the expanded Schottky-Mott rule should be universally applicable for 2D semiconductors, provided that material-specific experimental benchmark data are available.

Abstract
Two-dimensional layers of transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have been widely studied owing to their exciting potential for applications in advanced electronic and optoelectronic devices. Typically, monolayers of TMDs are produced either by mechanical exfoliation or chemical vapor deposition (CVD). While the former produces high-quality flakes with a size limited to a few micrometers, the latter gives large-area layers but with a nonuniform surface resulting from multiple defects and randomly oriented domains. The use of epitaxy growth can produce continuous, crystalline and uniform films with fewer defects. Here, we present a comprehensive study of the optical and structural properties of a single layer of MoS2 synthesized by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) on a sapphire substrate. For optical characterization, we performed spectroscopic ellipsometry over a broad spectral range (from 250 to 1700 nm) under variable incident angles. The structural quality was assessed by optical microscopy, atomic force microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and Raman spectroscopy through which we were able to confirm that our sample contains a single-atomic layer of MoS2 with a low number of defects. Raman and photoluminescence spectroscopies revealed that MBE-synthesized MoS2 layers exhibit a two-times higher quantum yield of photoluminescence along with lower photobleaching compared to CVD-grown MoS2, thus making it an attractive candidate for photonic applications.

Abstract
Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensors based on a silver film suffer from signal degradation due to silver oxidation in aqueous sensing environments. To overcome this limitation, we fabricated the planar plasmonic substrate employing an atomic MoS2 layer on a silver surface. Successful production of a large-area MoS2 monolayer blocks the penetration of oxygen and water molecules. In addition, we theoretically and experimentally found that MoS2 layer on the silver film can improve the SPR sensitivity and stability significantly. In this study, the proposed SPR substrate has the potential to provide highly enhanced sensor platforms for surface-limited molecular detections.

Abstract
Monolayers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are attractive for various modern semiconductor devices. However, the limited control over the location, yield, and size distribution of the products using current synthesis methods has severely limited their large-scale applicability. Herein, we identify the ability to use metal ( e. g., Au) nanoparticles to seed the growth of MoS2 monolayers and thereby provide a means to achieve programmable and controllable synthesis. In this study, prepatterned Au seeds are used as heterogeneous nucleation sites to induce the formation of desired geometries of MoS2 monolayers via chemical vapor deposition. Our experimental and theoretical results shed light on the growth mechanism driving the formation of MoS2 monolayers at these sites, revealing that the seeding effect originates from the favorable formation energy of MoS2 on the Au surface. A field-effect transistor with a predesigned channel geometry exhibits electronic performance that compares nicely with previously reported MoS2 monolayer devices. We believe this study contributes fundamental insights into controlled synthesis of TMD monolayers, making integration of these materials into emerging electronic devices more attainable.

Abstract
MoS2 nanosheets can be used as solid lubricants or additives of lubricating oils to reduce friction and resist wear. However, the atomic scale mechanism still needs to be illustrated. Herein, molecular simulations on the indentation and scratching process of MoS2 monolayer supported by Pt(111) surface were conducted to study the anti-pressure and friction reduction mechanisms of the MoS2 monolayer. Three deformation stages of Pt-supported MoS2 monolayer were found during the indentation process: elastic deformation, plastic deformation and finally, complete rupture. The MoS2 monolayer showed an excellent friction reduction effect at the first two stages, as a result of enhanced load bearing capacity and reduced deformation degree of the substrate. Unlike graphene, rupture of the Pt-supported MoS2 monolayer was related primarily to out-of-plane compression of the monolayer. These results provide a new insight into the relationship between the mechanical properties and lubrication properties of 2D materials.

Abstract
Thermal properties can substantially affect the operation of various electronics and optoelectronics devices based on two-dimensional materials. In this work, we describe our investigation of temperature-dependent thermal conductivity and interfacial thermal conductance of molybdenum disulfide monolayers supported on SiO2/Si substrates, using Raman spectroscopy. We observed that the calculated thermal conductivity (κ) and interfacial thermal conductance (g) decreased with increasing temperature from 62.2 W m(-1) K(-1) and 1.94 MW m(-2) K(-1) at 300 K to 7.45 W m(-1) K(-1) and 1.25 MW m(-2) K(-1) at 450 K, respectively.

Abstract
The electronic structure and optical properties of Mn and B, C, N co-doped molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) monolayers have been investigated through first-principles calculations. It is shown that the MoS2 monolayer reflects magnetism with a magnetic moment of 0.87 μB when co-doped with Mn-C. However, the systems co-doped with Mn-B and Mn-N atoms exhibit semiconducting behavior and their energy bandgaps are 1.03 and 0.81 eV, respectively. The bandgaps of the co-doped systems are smaller than those of the corresponding pristine forms, due to effective charge compensation between Mn and B (N) atoms. The optical properties of Mn-B (C, N) co-doped systems all reflect the redshift phenomenon. The absorption edge of the pure molybdenum disulfide monolayer is 0.8 eV, while the absorption edges of the Mn-B, Mn-C, and Mn-N co-doped systems become 0.45, 0.5, and 0 eV, respectively. As a potential material, MoS2 is widely used in many fields such as the production of optoelectronic devices, military devices, and civil devices.
