Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main" xml:lang="en"> <title>Abstract</title> <p>A novel way to grow MoS₂ on a large scale with uniformity and in desired patterns is developed. We use Au film as a catalyst on which [Mo(CO)₆] vapor decomposes to form a Mo‐Au surface alloy that is an ideal Mo reservoir for the growth of atomic layers of MoS₂. Upon exposure to H₂S, this surface alloy transforms into a few layers of MoS₂, which can be isolated and transferred on an arbitrary substrate. By simply patterning Au catalyst film by conventional lithographic techniques, MoS₂ atomic layers in desired patterns can be fabricated.</p> </abstract>
