Abstract
The present disclosure relates to methods of making a transition metal dichalcogenide. The methods can include a step of depositing a transition metal onto a substrate to form an epitaxial transition metal layer. The methods can also include a step of depositing a chalcogen onto the epitaxial transition metal layer, and a step of reacting the chalcogen with the epitaxial transition metal layer to form a transition metal dichalcogenide. In some instances, the chalcogen is reacted with the epitaxial transition metal layer at a temperature of between about 300° C. and 600° C., between about 300° C. and 550° C., between about 300° C. and 500° C., between about 300° C. and 450° C., or between about 300° C. and 400° C.
