We fabricate large-area atomically thin MoS$_2$ layers through the direct transformation of crystalline molybdenum MoS$_2$ (MoO$_3$) by sulfurization at relatively low temperatures. The obtained MoS2 sheets are polycrystalline (~10-20 nm single-crystal domain size) with areas of up to 300x300 um$^2$ with 2-4 layers in thickness and show a marked p-type behaviour. The synthesized films are characterized by a combination of complementary techniques: Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and electronic transport measurements.

The advancement of nanoscale electronics has been limited by energy dissipation challenges for over a decade. Such limitations could be particularly severe for two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors integrated with flexible substrates or multi-layered p
rocessors, both being critical thermal bottlenecks. To shed light into fundamental aspects of this problem, here we report the first direct measurement of spatially resolved temperature in functioning 2D monolayer MoS$_2$ transistors. Using Raman thermometry we simultaneously obtain temperature maps of the device channel and its substrate. This differential measurement reveals the thermal boundary conductance (TBC) of the MoS$_2$ interface (14 $pm$ 4 MWm$^-$$^2$K$^-$$^1$) is an order magnitude larger than previously thought, yet near the low end of known solid-solid interfaces. Our study also reveals unexpected insight into non-uniformities of the MoS$_2$ transistors (small bilayer regions), which do not cause significant self-heating, suggesting that such semiconductors are less sensitive to inhomogeneity than expected. These results provide key insights into energy dissipation of 2D semiconductors and pave the way for the future design of energy-efficient 2D electronics.
Strain engineering has arisen as a powerful technique to tune the electronic and optical properties of two-dimensional semiconductors like molybdenum disulfide (MoS2). Although several theoretical works predicted that biaxial strain would be more eff
ective than uniaxial strain to tune the band structure of MoS2, a direct experimental verification is still missing in the literature. Here we implemented a simple experimental setup that allows to apply biaxial strain through the bending of a cruciform polymer substrate. We used the setup to study the effect of biaxial strain on the differential reflectance spectra of 12 single-layer MoS2 flakes finding a redshift of the excitonic features at a rate between -40 meV/% and -110 meV/% of biaxial tension. We also directly compare the effect of biaxial and uniaxial strain on the same single-layer MoS2 finding that the biaxial strain gauge factor is 2.3 times larger than the uniaxial strain one.
Semiconductors require stable doping for applications in transistors, optoelectronics, and thermoelectrics. However, this has been challenging for two-dimensional (2D) materials, where existing approaches are either incompatible with conventional sem
iconductor processing or introduce time-dependent, hysteretic behavior. Here we show that low temperature (< 200$^circ$ C) sub-stoichiometric AlO$_x$ provides a stable n-doping layer for monolayer MoS$_2$, compatible with circuit integration. This approach achieves carrier densities > 2x10$^{13}$ 1/cm$^2$, sheet resistance as low as ~7 kOhm/sq, and good contact resistance ~480 Ohm.um in transistors from monolayer MoS$_2$ grown by chemical vapor deposition. We also reach record current density of nearly 700 uA/um (>110 MA/cm$^2$) in this three-atom-thick semiconductor while preserving transistor on/off current ratio > $10^6$. The maximum current is ultimately limited by self-heating and could exceed 1 mA/um with better device heat sinking. With their 0.1 nA/um off-current, such doped MoS$_2$ devices approach several low-power transistor metrics required by the international technology roadmap
We report on a direct measurement of sizable interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (iDMI) at the interface of two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenide (2D-TMD), MoS$_{rm 2}$ and Ni$_{80}$Fe$_{20}$ (Py) using Brillouin light scattering
spectroscopy. A clear asymmetry in spin-wave dispersion is measured in MoS$_{rm 2}$/Py/Ta, while no such asymmetry is detected in the reference Py/Ta system. A linear scaling of the DMI constant with the inverse of Py thickness indicates the interfacial origin of the observed DMI. We further observe an enhancement of DMI constant in three to four layer MoS$_{rm 2}$/Py system (by 56$%$) as compared to 2 layer MoS$_{rm 2}$/Py which is caused by a higher density of MoO$_{rm 3}$ defect species in the case of three to four layer MoS$_{rm 2}$. The results open possibilities of spin-orbitronic applications utilizing the 2D-TMD based heterostructures.
The current family of experimentally realized two-dimensional magnetic materials consist of 3$d$ transition metals with very weak spin-orbit coupling. In contrast, we report a new platform in a chemically bonded and layered 4$d$ oxide, with strong el
ectron correlations and competing spin-orbit coupling. We synthesize ultra-thin sheets of SrRu$_2$O$_6$ using scalable liquid exfoliation. These exfoliated sheets are characterized by complementary experimental and theoretical techniques. The thickness of the nano-sheets varies between three to five monolayers, and within the first-principles calculations, we show that antiferromagnetism survives in these ultra-thin layers. Experimental data suggest that exfoliation occurs from the planes perpendicular to the $c$-axis as the intervening hexagonal Sr-lattice separates the two-dimensional magnetic honeycomb Ru-layers. The high-resolution transmission electron microscope images indicate that the average inter-atomic spacing between the Ru-layers is slightly reduced, which agrees with the present calculations. The signatures of rotational stacking of the nanosheets are also observed. Such new two-dimensional platform offers enormous possibilities to explore emergent properties that appear due to the interplay between magnetism, strong correlations and spin-orbit coupling. Moreover, these effects can be further tuned as a function of layer thickness.
