Synthesis of Ultrathin MoS2 Films by CVD

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
An ultrathin MoS2 film was synthesized on a SiO2 wafer using chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Crucibles containing 0.1 g sulfur (Alfa Aesar, USA) and 0.3 g MoO3 (Sigma Aldrich, USA) were placed at the upstream and center of the chamber, respectively. The growth substrate was treated using the piranha solution and oxygen plasma, and placed at the downstream of the MoO3 crucible. The chamber was annealed at 150 °C before the synthesis. The chamber was heated at a rate of 25 °C min−1, and maintained at 650 °C and 10 torr with Ar flow of 50 sccm for 5 min. The temperature of sulfur was maintained at 160 °C during the reaction. The chamber was naturally cooled after the reaction was complete. A Raman spectrum of the synthesized MoS2 film was analyzed using T64000 (Horiba, Japan) at NCIRF (Supplementary Fig. 6a).

Synthesis and Crystal Growth of In1.2Ga0.8S3

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Gallium (99.999 mass%), indium (99.99 mass%), and sulfur (99.999 mass%) purchased from Alfa Aesar were used for the synthesis of the In1.2Ga0.8S3 phase. The synthesis was carried out in an evacuated (under 10−3 Pa) quartz ampoule by melting a stoichiometric mixture of the initial elements. An ampoule was heated up to 1050 °C and then slowly cooled down to room temperature for 24 h. The chemical vapor transport (CVT) method was used to grow single crystals of the In1.2Ga0.8S3 phase. In this method, an approximately 1.2 g polycrystalline sample was placed in a quartz ampoule together with elemental iodine whose mass was calculated as 4 mg/cm3 regarding the ampoule volume. A loaded ampoule was sealed under 10−3 Pa and then placed in the middle of a horizontal two-zone furnace. The temperature conditions for growing a single crystal were T1 = 700 °C and T2 = 600 °C. As a result, high-quality single crystals of this phase were achieved.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
