We report on the fabrication of field-effect transistors based on single and bilayers of the semiconductor WS2 and the investigation of their electronic transport properties. We find that the doping level strongly depends on the device environment and that long in-situ annealing drastically improves the contact transparency allowing four-terminal measurements to be performed and the pristine properties of the material to be recovered. Our devices show n-type behavior with high room-temperature on/off current ratio of ~106. They show clear metallic behavior at high charge carrier densities and mobilities as high as ~140 cm2/Vs at low temperatures (above 300 cm2/Vs in the case of bi-layers). In the insulating regime, the devices exhibit variable-range hopping, with a localization length of about 2 nm that starts to increase as the Fermi level enters the conduction band. The promising electronic properties of WS2, comparable to those of single-layer MoS2 and WSe2, together with its strong spin-orbit coupling, make it interesting for future applications in electronic, optical and valleytronic devices.

A method is introduced to isolate and measure the electrical transport properties of individual single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) aligned on an ST-cut quartz, from room temperature down to 2 K. The diameter and chirality of the measured SWNTs ar
e accurately defined from Raman spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy (AFM). A significant up-shift in the G-band of the resonance Raman spectra of the SWNTs is observed, which increases with increasing SWNTs diameter, and indicates a strong interaction with the quartz substrate. A semiconducting SWNT, with diameter 0.84 nm, shows Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid and Coulomb blockade behaviors at low temperatures. Another semiconducting SWNT, with a thinner diameter of 0.68 nm, exhibits a transition from the semiconducting state to an insulating state at low temperatures. These results elucidate some of the electrical properties of SWNTs in this unique configuration and help pave the way towards prospective device applications.
We report the first temperature dependent phonon transport measurements in suspended Cu-CVD single layer graphene (SLG) from 15K to 380K using microfabricated suspended devices. The thermal conductance per unit cross section $sigma$/A increases with
temperature and exhibits a peak near T~280K ($pm$10K) due to the Umklapp process. At low temperatures (T<140K), the temperature dependent thermal conductivity scales as ~T^{1.5}, suggesting that the main contribution to thermal conductance arises from flexural acoustic (ZA) phonons in suspended SLG. The $sigma$/A reaches a high value of 1.7$times10^5 T^{1.5}$ W/m^2K, which is approaching the expected ballistic phonon thermal conductance for two-dimensional graphene sheets. Our results not only clarify the ambiguity in the thermal conductance, but also demonstrate the potential of Cu-CVD graphene for heat related applications.
Since the discovery of graphene -a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb lattice - it was clear that this truly is a unique material system with an unprecedented combination of physical properties. Graphene is the thinnest membrane pre
sent in nature -just one atom thick- it is the strongest material, it is transparent and it is a very good conductor with room temperature charge mobilities larger than the typical mobilities found in silicon. The significance played by this new material system is even more apparent when considering that graphene is the thinnest member of a larger family: the few-layer graphene materials. Even though several physical properties are shared between graphene and its few-layers, recent theoretical and experimental advances demonstrate that each specific thickness of few-layer graphene is a material with unique physical properties.
Multilayer graphene (MLG) thin films are deposited on silicon oxide substrates by mechanical exfoliation (or scotch-tape method) from Kish graphite. The thickness and number of layers are determined from both Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and Raman S
pectroscopy. Electrical terminals are deposited on MLGs in a four-probe configuration by electron-beam lithography, gold/titanium thermal evaporation, and lift-off. The electrical resistance is measured from room temperature down to 2 K. The electrical resistance of the MLGs shows an increase with decreasing temperature, and then decreases after reaching a maximum value. These results are compared with recent experimental and theoretical data from the literature.
Imperfections in the crystal structure, such as point defects, can strongly modify the optical and transport properties of materials. Here, we study the effect of point defects on the optical and DC conductivities of single layers of semiconducting t
ransition metal dichalcogenides with the form $M$S$_2$, where $M$=Mo or W. The electronic structure is considered within a six bands tight-binding model, which accounts for the relevant combination of $d$ orbitals of the metal $M$ and $p$ orbitals of the chalcogen $S$. We use the Kubo formula for the calculation of the conductivity in samples with different distributions of disorder. We find that $M$ and/or S defects create mid-gap states that localize charge carriers around the defects and which modify the optical and transport properties of the material, in agreement with recent experiments. Furthermore, our results indicate a much higher mobility for $p$-doped WS$_2$ in comparison to MoS$_2$.
