The Intrinsic Thermodynamic Difficulty and a Step-Guided Mechanism for the Epitaxial Growth of Uniform Multilayer MoS2 with Controllable Thickness

Ruikang Dong et al.

Summary: A step-guided mechanism for the growth of uniform multilayer MoS2 on an epitaxial substrate is proposed. The simultaneous nucleation of multilayer MoS2 with aligned edges and uniform thickness can be guided by steps with proper height on the sapphire surface, promoting the continuous growth of multilayer MoS2 films.

Single-crystal two-dimensional material epitaxy on tailored non-single-crystal substrates

Xin Li et al.

Summary: This article reports a finding that single-crystal 2D materials can be epitaxially grown on twinned crystals. By establishing a geometric principle to describe the alignment of 2D materials on high-index surfaces, the authors demonstrate that 2D material islands grown on the two sides of a twin boundary can be well aligned. They also successfully grow wafer-scale single-crystal graphene and hexagonal boron nitride films on the surfaces of twinned copper foils. This discovery greatly increases the availability of large area high-quality 2D single crystals and expands the fundamental understanding of materials epitaxy.
