Lateral multilayer/monolayer MoS2 heterojunction for high performance photodetector applications

Abstract Inspired by the unique, thickness-dependent energy band structure of 2D materials, we study the electronic and optical properties of the photodetector based on the as-exfoliated lateral multilayer/monolayer MoS2 heterojunction. Good gate-tunable current-rectifying characteristics are observ...
