Chemical Vapor Deposition: Tunable Doping of Rhenium and Vanadium into Transition Metal Dichalcogenides for Two‐Dimensional Electronics (Adv. Sci. 11/2021)

A new strategy using mixed salts for chemical vapor deposition of tunable Re- and V-doped 2D transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) is realized by Shisheng Li, Takaaki Taniguchi, and co-workers, as described in article number 2004438. By applying the highly conductive V-doped WSe2 as van der Waals contacts for 2D WSe2 based field-effect transistor, the on-state current and on/off ratio are substantially improved, compared to the metal contacts.
