Two-dimensional (2D) palladium ditelluride (PdTe2) and platinum ditelluride (PtTe2) are two Dirac semimetals which demonstrate fascinating quantum properties such as superconductivity, magnetism and topological order, illustrating promising applications in future nanoelectronics and optoelectronics. However, the synthesis of their monolayers is dramatically hindered by strong interlayer coupling and orbital hybridization. In this study, an efficient synthesis method for monolayer PdTe2 and PtTe2 is demonstrated. Taking advantages of the surface reaction, epitaxial growth of large-area and high quality monolayers of PdTe2 and patterned PtTe2 is achieved by direct tellurization of Pd(111) and Pt(111). A well-ordered PtTe2 pattern with Kagome lattice formed by Te vacancy arrays is successfully grown. Moreover, multilayer PtTe2 can be also obtained and potential excitation of Dirac plasmons is observed. The simple and reliable growth procedure of monolayer PdTe2 and patterned PtTe2 gives unprecedented opportunities for investigating new quantum phenomena and facilitating practical applications in optoelectronics.

Vapor transportation is the core process in growing transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) by chemical vapor deposition (CVD). One inevitable problem is the spatial inhomogeneity of the vapors. The non-stoichiometric supply of transition-metal prec ursors and chalcogen leads to poor control in products location, morphology, crystallinity, uniformity and batch to batch reproducibility. While vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) growth involves molten precursors at the growth temperatures higher than their melting points. The liquid sodium molybdate can precipitate solid MoS2 monolayers when saturated with sulfur vapor. Taking advantage of the VLS growth, we achieved three kinds of important achievements: (a) 4-inch-wafer-scale uniform growth of MoS2 flakes on SiO2/Si substrates, (b) 2-inch-wafer-scale growth of continuous MoS2 film with a grain size exceeding 100 um on sapphire substrates, and (c) pattern (site-controlled) growth of MoS2 flakes and film. We clarified that the VLS growth thus pave the new way for the high-efficient, scalable synthesis of two-dimensional TMDC monolayers.
We present a detailed quantum oscillatory study on the Dirac type-II semimetallic candidates PdTe$_{2}$ and PtTe$_{2}$ emph{via} the temperature and the angular dependence of the de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) and Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) effects. In high quality single crystals of both compounds, i.e. displaying carrier mobilities between $10^3$ and $10^4$ cm$^2$/Vs, we observed a large non-saturating magnetoresistivity (MR) which in PtTe$_2$ at a temperature $T = 1.3$ K, leads to an increase in the resistivity up to $5 times 10^{4}$ % under a magnetic field $mu_0 H = 62$ T. These high mobilities correlate with their light effective masses in the range of 0.04 to 1 bare electron mass according to our measurements. For PdTe$_{2}$ the experimentally determined Fermi surface cross-sectional areas show an excellent agreement with those resulting from band-structure calculations. Surprisingly, this is not the case for PtTe$_{2}$ whose agreement between calculations and experiments is relatively poor even when electronic correlations are included in the calculations. Therefore, our study provides a strong support for the existence of a Dirac type-II node in PdTe$_2$ and probably also for PtTe$_2$. Band structure calculations indicate that the topologically non-trivial bands of PtTe$_2$ do not cross the Fermi-level ($varepsilon_F$). In contrast, for PdTe$_2$ the Dirac type-II cone does intersect $varepsilon_F$, although our calculations also indicate that the associated cyclotron orbit on the Fermi surface is located in a distinct $k_z$ plane with respect to the one of the Dirac type-II node. Therefore it should yield a trivial Berry-phase.

We present a method for growing bit patterned magnetic recording media using directed growth of sputtered granular perpendicular magnetic recording media. The grain nucleation is templated using an epitaxial seed layer which contains Pt pillars separ ated by amorphous metal oxide. The scheme enables the creation of both templated data and servo regions suitable for high density hard disk drive operation. We illustrate the importance of using a process that is both topographically and chemically driven to achieve high quality media.

Transition-metal chalcogenides (TMCs) materials have attracted increasing interest both for fundamental research and industrial applications. Among all these materials, two-dimensional (2D) compounds with honeycomb-like structure possess exotic elect ronic structures. Here, we report a systematic study of TMC monolayer AgTe fabricated by direct depositing Te on the surface of Ag(111) and annealing. Few intrinsic defects are observed and studied by scanning tunneling microscopy, indicating that there are two kinds of AgTe domains and they can form gliding twin-boundary. Then, the monolayer AgTe can serve as the template for the following growth of Te film. Meanwhile, some Te atoms are observed in the form of chains on the top of the bottom Te film. Our findings in this work might provide insightful guide for the epitaxial growth of 2D materials for study of novel physical properties and for future quantum devices.
Site-controlled quantum dots formed during the deposition of (Al)GaAs layers by metalorganic vapor-phase epitaxy on GaAs(111)B substrates patterned with inverted pyramids result in geometric and compositional self-ordering along the vertical axis of the template. We describe a theoretical scheme that reproduces the experimentally-observed time-dependent behavior of this process, including the evolution of the recess and the increase of Ga incorporation along the base of the template to stationary values determined by alloy composition and other growth parameters. Our work clarifies the interplay between kinetics and geometry for the development of self-ordered nanostructures on patterned surfaces, which is essential for the reliable on-demand design of confined systems for applications to quantum optics.
