We report on the demonstration of MoS2/GaN UV-visible photodetectors with high spectral responsivity both in UV and in visible regions as well as the observation of MoS2 band-edge in spectral responsivity. Multi-layer MoS2 flakes of thickness ~ 200 nm were exfoliated on epitaxial GaN-on-sapphire, followed by fabrication of detectors in a lateral Metal-Semiconductor-Metal (MSM) geometry with Ni/Au contacts which were insulated from the GaN layer underneath by Al2O3 dielectric. Devices exhibited distinct steps in spectral responsivity at 365 nm and at ~ 685 nm with a corresponding photo-to-dark current ratio of ~4000 and ~ 100 respectively. Responsivity of 0.1 A/W (at 10 V) was measured at 365 nm corresponding to GaN band edge, while the second band edge at ~ 685 nm is characterized by a spectral responsivity (SR) of ~ 33 A/W when accounted for the flake size, corresponding to the direct band gap at K point of multi-layer MoS2.

We present flexible photodetectors (PDs) for visible wavelengths fabricated by stacking centimetre-scale chemical vapour deposited (CVD) single layer graphene (SLG) and single layer CVD MoS2, both wet transferred onto a flexible polyethylene terephth alate substrate. The operation mechanism relies on injection of photoexcited electrons from MoS2 to the SLG channel. The external responsivity is 45.5A/W and the internal 570A/W at 642nm. This is at least two orders of magnitude higher than bulk-semiconductor flexible membranes and other flexible PDs based on graphene and layered materials. The photoconductive gain is up to 4x10^5. The photocurrent is in the 0.1-100 uA range. The devices are semi-transparent, with just 8% absorption at 642nm and work stably upon bending to a curvature of 6cm. These capabilities and the low voltage operation (<1V) make them attractive for wearable applications.
State-of-the-art fabrication and characterization techniques have been employed to measure the thermal conductivity of suspended, single-crystalline MoS2 and MoS2/hBN heterostructures. Two-laser Raman scattering thermometry was used combined with rea l time measurements of the absorbed laser power, which allowed us to determine the thermal conductivities without any assumptions. Measurements on MoS2 layers with thicknesses of 5 and 14 exhibit thermal conductivity in the range between 12 and 24 Wm-1K-1. Additionally, after determining the thermal conductivity of a selected MoS2 sample, an hBN flake was transferred onto it and the effective thermal conductivity of the heterostructure was subsequently measured. Remarkably, despite that the thickness of the hBN layer was less than a third of the thickness of the MoS2 layer, the heterostructure showed an almost eight-fold increase in the thermal conductivity, being able to dissipate more than 10 times the laser power without any visible sign of damage. These results are consistent with a high thermal interface conductance between MoS2 and hBN and an efficient in-plane heat spreading driven by hBN. Indeed, we estimate G 70 MWm-2K-1 which is significantly higher than previously reported values. Our work therefore demonstrates that the insertion of hBN layers in potential MoS2 based devices holds the promise for efficient thermal management.
We detect electroluminescence in single layer molybdenum disulphide (MoS2) field-effect transistors built on transparent glass substrates. By comparing absorption, photoluminescence, and electroluminescence of the same MoS2 layer, we find that they a ll involve the same excited state at 1.8eV. The electroluminescence has pronounced threshold behavior and is localized at the contacts. The results show that single layer MoS2, a direct band gap semiconductor, is promising for novel optoelectronic devices, such as 2-dimensional light detectors and emitters.
The emergence of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) as 2D electronic materials has stimulated proposals of novel electronic and photonic devices based on TMD heterostructures. Here we report the determination of band offsets in TMD heterostructu res by using microbeam X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy ({mu}-XPS) and scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy (STM/S). We determine a type-II alignment between $textrm{MoS}_2$ and $textrm{WSe}_2$ with a valence band offset (VBO) value of 0.83 eV and a conduction band offset (CBO) of 0.76 eV. First-principles calculations show that in this heterostructure with dissimilar chalcogen atoms, the electronic structures of $textrm{WSe}_2$ and $textrm{MoS}_2$ are well retained in their respective layers due to a weak interlayer coupling. Moreover, a VBO of 0.94 eV is obtained from density functional theory (DFT), consistent with the experimental determination.
Large capacitance enhancement is useful for increasing the gate capacitance of field-effect transistors (FETs) to produce low-energy-consuming devices with improved gate controllability. We report strong capacitance enhancement effects in a newly eme rged two-dimensional channel material, molybdenum disulfide (MoS2). The enhancement effects are due to strong electron-electron interaction at the low carrier density regime in MoS2. We achieve about 50% capacitance enhancement in monolayer devices and 10% capacitance enhancement in bilayer devices. However, the enhancement effect is not obvious in multilayer (layer number >3) devices. Using the Hartree-Fock approximation, we illustrate the same trend in our inverse compressibility data.
