We discover a method of synthesizing wafer-scale single-crystal (SC) hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) monolayer film. In contrary to traditional epitaxial growth, liquid gold substrate allows the self-collimation of circular hBN grains, eventually forming an SC hBN film on a wafer scale. SC hBN serves the growth template for SC-Graphene/hBN heterostructure and SC tungsten disulfide. This is the first…
2D material properties, including electronic and optical properties, can be adjusted through alloying. In this work, we dope NbSe2 with W to make a lateral heterostructure with semiconducting WSe2 on the inside and metallic NbSe2 on the outside. The each point of doping level is characterized by STEM (Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy) and well correlated with optical (Raman, Photoluminesc…

This work demonstrate the basal plane activation of 2D MoS2 via substituted V atoms as VSn unit in 2H-MoS2 lattice. The VSn units acts as acive sites and also charge transfer pathways for efficient hydrogen evolution.

This work reviews the recent progress of the large-area synthesis of hBN and other related vdW heterostructures via CVD, and artificial construction of vdW heterostructures and 2D vdW electronics based on hBN, in terms of charge fluctuations, passivation, gate dielectrics, tunneling, Coulombic interactions, and contact resistantces. The challenges and future perspectives for practical applications…
