Strain engineering is a promising method for tuning the electronic properties of 2D materials. In this study, a facile strategy for the fabrication of highly strained MoS2 via chalcogenide substitution reaction (CSR) is reported. The resulting MoS2 sustains ultra large in-plane strain with great homogeneity, with the strain tunable by varying processing temperature, potentially allowing modulation of the bandgap for device applications.
Strain engineering is a promising method for tuning the electronic properties of two-dimensional (2D) materials, which are capable of sustaining enormous strain thanks to their atomic thinness. However, applying a large and homogeneous strain on these 2D materials, including the typical semiconductor MoS2, remains cumbersome. Here we report a facile strategy for the fabrication of highly strained MoS2 via chalcogenide substitution reaction (CSR) of MoTe2 with lattice inheritance. The MoS2 resulting from the sulfurized MoTe2 sustains ultra large in-plane strain (approaching its strength limit -10%) with great homogeneity. Furthermore, the strain can be deterministically and continuously tuned to -1.5% by simply varying the processing temperature. Thanks to the fine control of our CSR process, we demonstrate a heterostructure of strained MoS2/MoTe2 with abrupt interface. Finally, we verify that such a large strain potentially allows the modulation of MoS2 bandgap over an ultra-broad range (-1 eV). Our controllable CSR strategy paves the way for the fabrication of highly strained 2D materials for applications in devices. (c) 2021 Science China Press.
