| Summary: | Ultrathin two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have
tremendously attracted in the global development of materials science thanks to their
nature superior electrical, optical, thermal and mechanical properties that are essential
in developing advanced electronics, optoelectronic devices or photocatalytic in this
modernizing era. This leads to many researchers to explore synthesis methodologies
to produce such material. Those discovered methodologies are capable of synthesizing
many forms of 2D TMDs from monolayer to multilayer as well as homostructure and
heterostructure. The existing 2D TMDs available in the market is limited, among
which, 2D TMDs that possess magnetic properties are rarely reported. This kind of
materials are essential in the construction of spintronic logic and memory devices.
Herein, the common synthesis methods to grow 2D TMDs will be discussed.
Additionally, synthesis of novel ferromagnetic Cr2Te3 using chemical vapor
deposition (CVD) and its characterizations will also be discussed. |
