Abstract

Substitutional doping of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) may provide routes to achieving tunable p-n junctions, bandgaps, chemical sensitivity, and magnetism in these materials. In this study, we demonstrate in situ doping of monolayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) with manganese (Mn) via vapor phase deposition techniques. Successful incorporation of Mn in MoS2 leads to modifications of the band structure as evidenced by photoluminescence and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, but this is heavily dependent on the choice of substrate. We show that inert substrates (i.e., graphene) permit the incorporation of several percent Mn in MoS2, while substrates with reactive surface terminations (i.e., SiO2 and sapphire) preclude Mn incorporation and merely lead to defective MoS2. The results presented here demonstrate that tailoring the substrate surface could be the most significant factor in substitutional doping of TMDs with non-TMD elements.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
