Abstract

Abstract Monolayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ), an emergent two-dimensional (2D) semiconductor, holds great promise for transcending the fundamental limits of silicon electronics and continue the downscaling of field-effect transistors. To realize its full potential and high-end applications, controlled synthesis of wafer-scale monolayer MoS 2 single crystals on general commercial substrates is highly desired yet challenging. Here, we demonstrate the successful epitaxial growth of 2-inch single-crystal MoS 2 monolayers on industry-compatible substrates of c -plane sapphire by engineering the formation of a specific interfacial reconstructed layer through the S/MoO 3 precursor ratio control. The…
