The long-term dynamic carrier-trapping increase can be investigated on the same platform through the use of the additional stress measurements.","PeriodicalId":418495,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE 2nd Electron Devices Technology and Manufacturing Conference (EDTM)","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116355665","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Well-studied TMDs, such as molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) and tungsten diselenide (WSe2), exhibit a direct bandgap in the monolayer form, but an indirect bandgap in the bulk form. Rhenium disulfide (ReS2), on the other hand, is a new TMD that is unique in its ability to retain a direct bandgap independent of thickness. By using chemical vapor deposition (CVD), few-layer ReS2 is synthesized and characterized by optical methods such as Raman spectroscopy and photoluminescence.
