The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Symposium
To improve optoelectronic semiconductor materials, one of the most efficient research areas is the two-dimensional (2D) transition-metal dichalocogenides (TMDCs). It has been shown that organic nonoxidizing superacid bis(trifluoromethane)sulfonamide (TFSI) treatment of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) monolayer could uniformly enhance its photoluminescence by more than two orders of magnitude and also extend the lifetime of excitons. This could greatly improve the efficiency of the solar energy usage, but the mechanism behind it has not been fully understood. Extreme low temperatures (approximately 7K), which slow the surface exciton mobility, were applied to investigate the changes of treated MoS2 monolayer surfaces. …
