Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) have attracted much interest and shown promise in many applications. However, it is challenging to obtain uniform TMDCs with clean surfaces, because of the difficulties in controlling the way the reactants are supplied to the reaction in the current chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth process. Here, we report a new growth approach called dissolution-precipitation (DP) growth, where the metal sources are sealed inside glass substrates to control their feeding to the reaction. Noteworthy, the diffusion of metal source inside glass to its surface provides a uniform metal source on the glass surface, and restricts the TMDC growth to only a surface reaction while eliminates unwanted gas-phase reaction. This feature gives rise to highly-uniform monolayer TMDCs with a clean surface on centimeter-scale substrates. The DP growth works well for a large variety of TMDCs and their alloys, providing a solid foundation for the controlled growth of clean TMDCs by the fine control of the metal source.

Monolayers of transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are characterized by an extraordinarily strong Coulomb interaction giving rise to tightly bound excitons with binding energies of hundreds of meV. Excitons dominate the optical response as well as
the ultrafast dynamics in TMDs. As a result, a microscopic understanding of exciton dynamics is the key for technological application of these materials. In spite of this immense importance, elementary processes guiding the formation and relaxation of excitons after optical excitation of an electron-hole plasma has remained unexplored to a large extent. Here, we provide a fully quantum mechanical description of momentum- and energy-resolved exciton dynamics in monolayer molybdenum diselenide (MoSe$_2$) including optical excitation, formation of excitons, radiative recombination as well as phonon-induced cascade-like relaxation down to the excitonic ground state. Based on the gained insights, we reveal experimentally measurable features in pump-probe spectra providing evidence for the exciton relaxation cascade.
Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) have attracted great attention due to their physical and chemical properties that make them promising in electronics and optoelectronics. Because of the difficulties in controlling concent
rations of solid precursors and spatially non-uniform growth dynamics, it is challenging to grow wafer-scale 2D TMDCs with good uniformity and reproducibility so far, which significantly hinders their practical use. Here we report a vertical chemical vapor deposition (VCVD) design to grow monolayer TMDCs with a uniform density and high quality over the whole wafer, and with excellent reproducibility. The use of such VCVD design can easily control the three key growth parameters of precursor concentration, gas flow and temperature, which cannot be done in currently widely-used horizontal CVD system. Statistical results show that VCVD-grown monolayer TMDCs including MoS2 and WS2 are of high uniformity and quality on substrates over centimeter size. We also fabricated multiple van der Waals heterostructures by the one-step transfer of VCVD-grown TMDC samples, owning to its good uniformity. This work opens a way to grow 2D materials with high uniformity and reproducibility on the wafer scale, which can be used for the scalable fabrication of 2D materials and their heterostructures.
Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) have emerged as a new two dimensional materials field since the monolayer and few-layer limits show different properties when compared to each other and to their respective bulk materials. For example, in some
cases when the bulk material is exfoliated down to a monolayer, an indirect-to-direct band gap in the visible range is observed. The number of layers $N$ ($N$ even or odd) drives changes in space group symmetry that are reflected in the optical properties. The understanding of the space group symmetry as a function of the number of layers is therefore important for the correct interpretation of the experimental data. Here we present a thorough group theory study of the symmetry aspects relevant to optical and spectroscopic analysis, for the most common polytypes of TMDCs, i.e. $2Ha$, $2Hc$ and $1T$, as a function of the number of layers. Real space symmetries, the group of the wave vectors, the relevance of inversion symmetry, irreducible representations of the vibrational modes, optical selection rules and Raman tensors are discussed.
In the crystal growth of transition metal dichalcogenides by the Chemical Vapor Transport method (CVT), the choice of the transport agent plays a key role. We have investigated the effect of various chemical elements and compounds on the growth of Ti
Se2, MoSe2, TaS2 and TaSe2 and found that pure I2 is the most suitable for growing TiSe2, whereas transition metal chlorides perform best with Mo- and Ta- chalcogenides. The use of TaCl5 as a transport agent in the CVT process allows to selectively growth either polymorph of TaS2 and TaSe2 and the optimum growth conditions are reported. Moreover, by using TaCl5 and tuning the temperature and the halogen starting ratio, it was possible to grow whiskers of the compounds TaS2, TaSe2, TaTe2, TaS3 and TaSe3.
Due to their physical properties and potential applications in energy conversion and storage, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have garnered substantial interest in recent years. Amongst this class of materials, TMDs based on molybdenum, tungs
ten, sulfur and selenium are particularly attractive due to their semiconducting properties and the availability of bottom-up synthesis techniques. Here we report a method which yields high quality crystals of transition metal diselenide and ditelluride compounds (PtTe2, PdTe2, NiTe2, TaTe2, TiTe2, RuTe2, PtSe2, PdSe2, NbSe2, TiSe2, VSe2, ReSe2) from their solid solutions, via vapor deposition from a metal-saturated chalcogen melt. Additionally, we show the synthesis of rare-earth metal poly-chalcogenides and NbS2 crystals using the aforementioned process. Most of the obtained crystals have a layered CdI2 structure. We have investigated the physical properties of selected crystals and compared them to state-of-the-art findings reported in the literature. Remarkably, the charge density wave transition in 1T-TiSe2 and 2H-NbSe2 crystals is well-defined at TCDW ~ 200 K and ~ 33 K, respectively. Angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy and electron diffraction are used to directly access the electronic and crystal structures of PtTe2 single crystals, and yield state-of-the-art measurements.
