Real-time monitoring is essential for understanding and eventually precise controlling of the growth of two dimensional transition-metal dichalcogenides (2D TMDCs). However, it is very challenging to carry out such kind of studies on chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Here, we report the first real time $in-situ$ study on the CVD growth of the 2D TMDCs. More specifically, CVD growth of molybdenum disulfide (MoS$_2$) monolayer on sapphire substrates has been monitored $in-situ$ using differential transmittance spectroscopy (DTS). The growth of the MoS$_2$ monolayer can be precisely followed by looking at the evolution of the characteristic optical features. Consequently, a strong correlation between the growth rate of MoS$_2$ monolayer and the temperature distribution in the CVD reactor has been revealed. Our result demonstrates the great potential of the real time $in-situ$ optical spectroscopy for the realization of the precisely controlled growth of 2D semiconductor materials.

The integration of two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenide crystals (TMDCs) into a dielectric environment is critical for optoelectronic and photonic device applications. Here, we investigate the effects of direct deposition of different diel
ectric materials (Al$_2$O$_3$, SiO$_2$, SiN$_x$) onto atomically thin (monolayer) TMDC WS$_2$ on its optical response. Atomic layer deposition (ALD), electron beam evaporation (EBE), plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition (PECVD), and magnetron sputtering methods of material deposition are investigated. The photoluminescence (PL) measurements reveal quenching of the excitonic emission after all deposition processes. The reduction in neutral exciton PL is linked to the increased level of charge doping and associated rise of the trion emission, and/or the localized (bound) exciton emission. Furthermore, Raman spectroscopy allows us to clearly correlate the observed changes of excitonic emission with the increased levels of lattice disorder and defects. Overall, the EBE process results in the lowest level of doping and defect densities and preserves the spectral weight of the exciton emission in the PL, as well as the exciton oscillator strength. Encapsulation with ALD appears to cause chemical changes, which makes it distinct from all other techniques. Sputtering is revealed as the most aggressive deposition method for WS$_2$, fully quenching its optical response. Our results demonstrate and quantify the effects of direct deposition of dielectric materials onto monolayer WS$_2$, which can provide a valuable guidance for the efforts to integrate monolayer TMDCs into functional optoelectronic devices.
Many of the fundamental optical and electronic properties of atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenides are dominated by strong Coulomb interactions between electrons and holes, forming tightly bound atom-like excitons. Here, we directly trace
the ultrafast formation of excitons by monitoring the absolute densities of bound and unbound electron-hole pairs in monolayers of WSe$_2$ following femtosecond non-resonant optical excitation. To this end, phase-locked mid-infrared probe pulses and field-sensitive electro-optic sampling are used to map out the full complex-valued optical conductivity of the non-equilibrium system and to discern the hallmark low-energy responses of bound and unbound pairs. While free charge carriers strongly influence the infrared response immediately after above-bandgap injection, up to 60% of the electron-hole pairs are bound as excitons already on a sub-picosecond timescale, evidencing extremely fast and efficient exciton formation. During the subsequent recombination phase, we still find a large density of free carriers in addition to excitons, indicating a non-equilibrium state of the photoexcited electron-hole system.
We study photoluminescence (PL) spectra and exciton dynamics of MoS$_2$ monolayer (ML) grown by the chemical vapor deposition technique. In addition to the usual direct A-exciton line we observe a low-energy line of bound excitons dominating the PL s
pectra at low temperatures. This line shows unusually strong redshift with increase in the temperature and submicrosecond time dynamics suggesting indirect nature of the corresponding transition. By monitoring temporal dynamics of exciton PL distribution in the ML plane we observe diffusive transport of A-excitons and measure the diffusion coefficient up to $40$~cm$^2$/s at elevated excitation powers. The bound exciton spatial distribution spreads over tens of microns in $sim 1$ $mu$s. However this spread is subdiffusive, characterized by a significant slowing down with time. The experimental findings are interpreted as a result of the interplay between the diffusion and Auger recombination of excitons.
We present an ultra-high vacuum scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) study of structural defects in molybdenum disulfide thin films grown on silicon substrates by chemical vapor deposition. A distinctive type of grain boundary periodically arranged in
side an isolated triangular domain, along with other inter-domain grain boundaries of various types, is observed. These periodic defects, about 50 nm apart and a few nanometers in width, remain hidden in optical or low-resolution microscopy studies. We report a complex growth mechanism that produces 2D nucleation and spiral growth features that can explain the topography in our films.
In this work, we have systematically studied the role of point defects in the recombination time of monolayer MoS$_2$ using time-dependent ab initio non-adiabatic molecular dynamics simulations. Various types of point defects, such as S vacancy, S in
terstitial, Mo vacancy and Mo interstitial have been considered. We show that defects strongly accelerate the electron-hole recombination, especially interstitial S atoms do that by 3 orders of magnitude higher compared to pristine MoS$_2$. Mo defects (both vacancy and interstitial) introduce a multitude of de-excitation pathways via various defect levels in the energy gap. The results of this study provide some fundamental understanding of photoinduced de-excitation dynamics in presence of defects in highly technologically relevant 2D MoS$_2$.
