Structural and electronic properties of MoS₂ and MoSe₂ monolayers grown by chemical vapor deposition on Au(111).

ABSTRACT: The exceptional electronic and photonic properties of the monolayers of transition metal dichalcogenides including the spin-orbit splitting of the valence and conduction bands at the K points of the Brillouin zone make them promising for novel applications in electronics, photonics and optoelectronics. Scalable growth of these materials and understanding of their interaction with the substrate is crucial for these applications. Here we report the growth of MoS₂ and MoSe₂ monolayers on Au(111) by chemical vapor deposition at ambient pressure as well as the analysis of their structural and electronic properties down to the atomic scale. To this aim, we apply ultrahigh vacuum surface sensitive techniques including scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy, lo
