1T‐to‐2H Phase Evolution During Epitaxial Growth of Transition Metal Dichalcogenides

ABSTRACT Polymorphism in transition‐metal dichalcogenides is typically defined based on the post‐growth phase (1T or 2H) or stabilized heterophase structures. Transient 1T‐to‐2H phase evolution is demonstrated during epitaxial growth of MoS 2 and WSe 2 on sapphire by metalorganic...

Local Chemistry-Guided Molecular Beam Epitaxy Growth of SnSe on MgO via Combined ReaxFF Modeling and Machine Learning

Subtle variations in local growth chemistry can fundamentally alter the morphology of layered chalcogenide thin films, yet the atomic-scale mechanisms underlying this sensitivity remain poorly understood. Here, we combine molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) experiments, reactive molecul...
