ABSTRACT: Ultrathin WS2 films are promising functional materials for electronic and optoelectronic devices. Therefore, their synthesis over a large area, allowing control over their thickness and structure, is an essential task. In this work, we investigated the influence of atomic layer deposition (ALD)-grown WO3 seed-film thickness on the structural and electrical properties of WS2 nanosheets obtained via a sulfurization technique. Transmission electron microscopy indicated that the thinnest (1.9 nm) film contains rather big (up to 50 nm) WS2 grains in the amorphous matrix. The signs of incomplete sulfurization, namely, oxysulfide phase presence, were found by X-ray photoemission spectroscopy analysis. The increase in the seed-film thickness of up to 4.7
