We overview fundamental properties, preparation techniques, and potential device applications of single- and few-monolayer-thick molybdenum disulfide MoS_2 belonging to a new emerging class of materials: 2-dimensional semiconductors. To a large extent, the interest in the 2-dimensional materials is fueled by the quest for alternatives to graphene, which is hardly suitable for electronic devices because of the lack of a band gap. A unique combination of physical properties, including flexibility, high electron mobility, and optical transparency combined with a large band gap tunable from indirect 1.2 eV for bulk to direct 1.9 eV for a monolayer, make MoS_2 attractive for a …
