Strain Engineering 2D MoS${}_2$ with Thin Film Stress Capping Layers

Tara Peña, Shoieb A. Chowdhury, Ahmad Azizimanesh +3

We demonstrate a method to induce tensile and compressive strain into two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) MoS${}_2$ via the deposition of stressed thin films to…
