We fabricated hybrid nanostructures consisting of MoS monolayers and Au nanopillar (Au-NP) arrays. The surface morphology and Raman spectra showed that the MoS flakes transferred onto the Au-NPs were very flat and nonstrained. The Raman and photoluminescence intensities of MoS/Au-NP were 3- and 20-fold larger than those of MoS flakes on a flat Au thin film, respectively. The finite-difference time-domain calculations showed that the Au-NPs significantly concentrated the incident light near their surfaces, leading to broadband absorption enhancement in the MoS flakes. Compared with a flat Au thin film, the Au-NPs enabled a 6-fold increase in the absorption in the MoS monolayer at a wavelength of 615 nm. The contact potential difference mapping showed that the electric potential at the MoS/Au contact region was higher than that of the suspended MoS region by 85 mV. Such potential modulation enabled the Au-NPs to efficiently collect photogenerated electrons from the MoS flakes, as revealed by the uniform positive surface photovoltage signals throughout the MoS surface.

MoS, one of the most researched two-dimensional semiconductor materials, has great potential as the channel material in dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) due to the low leakage current inherited from the atomically thin thickness, high band gap, and heavy effective mass. In this work, we fabricate one-transistor-one-capacitor (1T1C) DRAM using chemical vapor deposition (CVD)-grown monolayer (ML) MoS in large area and confirm the ultralow leakage current of approximately 10 A/μm, significantly lower than the previous report (10 A/μm) in two-transistor-zero-capacitor (2T0C) DRAM based on a few-layer MoS flake. Through rigorous analysis of leakage current considering thermionic emission, tunneling at the source/drain, Shockley-Read-Hall recombination, and trap-assisted tunneling (TAT) current, the TAT current is identified as the primary source of leakage current.

The interfacial adhesion between transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) and the growth substrate significantly influences the employment of flakes in various applications. Most previous studies have focused on MoS and graphene, particularly their interaction with SiO/Si substrates. In this work, the adhesion strength of CVD-grown bilayer WS is directly measured using the nano scratch technique on three different substrates-Sapphire, SiO/Si, and fused quartz.

Molybdenum disulfide (MoS) is a notable two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) with properties ideal for nanoelectronic and optoelectronic applications. With growing interest in the material, it is critical to understand its layer-number-dependent properties and develop strategies for controlling them. Here, we demonstrate a photo-modulation of MoS flakes and elucidate layer-number-dependent charge transfer behaviors.

The precise domain control in ferroelectric CuInPS (CIPS) remains challenging. A promising approach is by interfacing CIPS with the ferroelectric layer, but interface-driven ferroelectricity tunning mechanism remains unclear. Here, the demonstration of interfacial strain-induced ferroelectric tuning and enhancement in CIPS via ferroelectric substrate is reported by photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, combined with piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations.
