2D Materials: Re Doping in 2D Transition Metal Dichalcogenides as a New Route to Tailor Structural Phases and Induced Magnetism (Adv. Mater. 43/2017)

Abstract

In article number 1703754, Aravind Krishnamoorthy, Chandra Sekhar Tiwary, Pulickel M. Ajayan, and co-workers show that Re-doping of transition-metal-dichalcogenide monolayers during chemical vapor deposition (CVD) offers a simple way to controllably tune crystal structure and phase composition in two-dimensional alloys. The CVD-synthesized MoReSe2 alloys show composition-dependent electronic structures and magnetic properties.
