Congrats to Yan, Yuanyuan, and Bin their co-first authored paper "Large-Domain Monolayer MoS2 Synthesis via Local-Feeding Metalorganic Chemical Vapor Deposition" being published in ACS Materials Letters!

We report the MOCVD growth of large-size and single-crystal MoS₂ monolayers using a quartz nozzle-guided precursor delivery approach. This growth method substantially reduces the nucleation density, enabling the formation of record-large MoS₂ crystals (>300 μm) among all MOCVD results. Our work demonstrates that large-domain growth is compatible with the high-reactivity metalorganic precursors, on the condition that the growth dynamics are deliberately engineered.
