Defect Engineering in Single-Layer MoS 2 Using Heavy Ion Irradiation
Abstract
Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have attracted much attention due to their promising optical, electronic, magnetic, and catalytic properties. Engineering the defects in TMDs represents an effective way to achieve novel functionalities and superior performance of TMDs devices. However, it remains a significant challenge to create defects in TMDs in a controllable manner or to correlate the nature of defects with their functionalities. In this work, taking single-layer MoS 2 as a model system, defects with controlled densities are generated by 500 keV Au irradiation with different ion fluences, and the generated defects are mostly S vacancies. We further show that the defects introduced by ion irradiation can significantly affect the properties of the single-layer MoS 2 , leading to considerable changes in its photoluminescence characteristics and electrocatalytic behavior. As the defect density increases, the characteristic photoluminescence peak of MoS 2 first blueshifts and then redshifts, which is likely due to the electron transfer from MoS 2 to the adsorbed O 2 at the defect sites. The generation of the defects can also strongly improve the hydrogen evolution reaction activity of MoS 2 , attributed to the modified adsorption of atomic hydrogen at the defects.

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.
