Fig. 1 Investigation of a bare ML MoS2 surface deposited on HOPG. (A) Large-area STM image showing the ML MoS2 terrace (Vs = 2 V, It = 40 pA). (B) Line trace analysis of the white line in (A) and the schematic model of defects in MoS2. (C and D) Zoomed-in STM images of a single defect located on the ML MoS2 in the empty (Vs = 1 V) and filled (Vs = −1 V) states, respectively (It = 230 pA). Scale bar, 1 nm; (D) at same magnification as (C). (E) STS measured on the terrace of a ML MoS2; the black spectra are measured far away from the defects, whereas the red spectra are measured near a defect. (F) Spatial STS near the CB edge as a function of the distance from the defect.
Fig. 2 Effects of the formation of the interface at TiOPc/MoS2. (A) Few TiOPc molecules deposited on a MoS2 ML at 300 K (Vs = 2 V, It = 30 pA). Inset shows the molecular structure of TiOPc. (B) Cross-sectional line trace of an adsorbed TiOPc molecule. (C) Single TiOPc adsorption with a black background. (D) Subset of dI/dV/I/V spectra taken along the dashed arrow in (C). (E) Formation of a full-coverage ML TiOPc on a ML MoS2 and corresponding Fourier transform (Vs = 2 V, It = 50 pA). (F) STS of ML TiOPc on a ML MoS2.
Fig. 4 Electrical and PL characteristics of MoS2 ML, with and without ML TiOPc. (A) Back-gated transfer characteristics of a ML MoS2 FET in log (solid curves) and linear (dashed curves) scales, before and after deposition of ML TiOPc. (B) Room temperature PL of exfoliated ML MoS2 before and after deposition of ML TiOPc. CPS, counts per second.
