Large-Area Aiming Synthesis of WSe2 Monolayers

The monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides have recently attracted much attention owing to their potential in valleytronics, flexible and low-power electronics and optoelectronic devices. Recent reports have demonstrated the growth of large-size 2-dimensional MoS2 layers by the sulfurization of molybdenum oxides. However, the growth of transition metal selenide monolayer has still been a challenge. Here we report that the introduction of hydrogen in the reaction chamber helps to activate the selenization of WO3, where large-size WSe2 monolayer flakes or thin films can be successfully grown.
