Biaxial Strain Transfer in Monolayer MoS₂ and WSe₂ Transistor Structures.

ABSTRACT: Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides are intensely explored as active materials in 2D material-based devices due to their potential to overcome device size limitations, sub-nanometric thickness, and robust mechanical properties. Considering their large band gap sensitivity to mechanical strain, single-layered TMDs are well-suited for strain-engineered devices. While the impact of various types of mechanical strain on the properties of a variety of TMDs has been studied in the past, TMD-based devices have rarely been studied under mechanical deformations, with uniaxial strain being the most common one. Biaxial strain on the other hand, which is an important mode of deformation, remains scarcely studied as far as 2D material devices are concerned. Here, we study the strain transfer eff
