Plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition of HfO2 on monolayer, bilayer, and trilayer MoS2 for the integration of high-k dielectrics in 2D devices is demonstrated and the role of surface and subsurface sulfur vacancies is explored.

Large exciton binding energy due to nonlocal screening effect that is even weaker in monolayer SnO2 because of the narrow spatial overlap of the density of occupied and unoccupied states. Because of this narrow spatial extension of the wave function of...

Carrier confinement can be used to improve the optoelectronic properties of ZnO-based devices. In this paper, published in Nanoscale communications, we demonstrate improved carrier confinement of ZnO atomic layer using MgO layers.
