Thermodynamically driven tilt grain boundaries of monolayer crystals using catalytic liquid alloys
Min-Yeong Choi, Chang-Won Choi, Dong-Yeong Kim +4
We report a method to precisely control the atomic defects at grain boundaries (GBs) of monolayer MoS2 by vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) growth using sodium molybdate liquid alloys, whic…

Wafer-scale Programmed Assembly of One-atom-thick Crystals
Seong-Jun Yang, Ju-Hyun Jung, Eunsook Lee +11
Crystalline films offer various physical properties based on the modulation of their thicknesses and atomic structures. The layer-by-layer assembly of atomically thin crystals prov…

Interstitially bridged van der Waals interface enabling stacking-fault-free, layer-by-layer epitaxy
GunWoo Yoo, TaeJoon Mo, Yong-Sung Kim +10
Van der Waals (vdW) crystals are prone to twisting, sliding, and buckling due to inherently weak interlayer interactions. While thickness-controlled vdW structures have attracted c…
