Abstract

Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), two-dimensional atomic layered materials with direct bandgap in the range of 1.1-2.1 eV, have attracted a lot of research interest due to their high response to light and capability to build new types of artificial heterostructures. However, the large-area synthesis of high-quality and uniform TMDC films with vertical-stacked heterostructure still remains challenge. In this study, we have developed a metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) system for TMDCs and conducted a systematic study on the growth of single-layer TMDCs and their heterostructures. In particular, using a bubbler-type organometallic compound sources, the concentration and flow rate of each source can be precisely controlled to obtain uniformly single-layered MoS2 and WS2 films over the centimeter scale. In addition, the MoS2/WS2 vertical heterostructure was achieved by growing WS2 film directly on the MoS2 film, as confirmed by electron microscopy, UV-visible spectrophotometer, Raman spectroscopy, and photoluminescence spectroscopy.

1.1~2.1eV의 직접 천이형 밴드갭을 가지는 전이금속 칼코게나이드(Transition Metal Dichalcogenide, TMDC)는 빛에 대한 반응성이 크고 구조적 특징상 2차원 물질들과의 수직 이종접합구조를 형성하기 용이하다는 장점으로 차세대 광전소자와 반도체소자 물질로서 대두되고 있다. 하지만 TMDC를 얻는 공정들의 한계로 인해 고품질, 대면적의 수직이종접합구조의 형성에 어려움이 존재한다. 본 연구에서는 MOCVD 시스템을 제작하고, 단일층 TMDC 및 이들의 이종구조에 제조에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 특히, 버블러 타입의 유기금속화합물 소스를 활용하여, 반응기 내로 유입되는 소스의 농도와 유량을 정밀하게 조절함으로써 전면적으로 균일한 박막을 얻을 수 있다. MOCVD로 MoS2, WS2 박막을 성장시키고 주사전자현미경, UV-visible spectrophotometer, Raman spectroscopy, photoluminescence 분석을 진행하여 균일한 박막을 성장시켰음을 확인하였다. 또한, MoS2 박막에 WS2 박막을 직접 성장시킴으로써 MoS2/WS2 수직 이종접합구조를 형성하였다.
