Heterogeneous integration of two-dimensional materials and the conventional semiconductor has opened opportunities for next-generation semiconductor devices and their processing. Heterogeneous integration has been studied for economical manufacturing by substrate recycling and novel functionalities by a combination of incommensurate materials. However, utilizing the integration requires controlling locations of the integrated architectures. Here, we show area-selective deposition (ASD) of germanium on the graphene/MoS2 stack. Ge nucleation precisely occurred on the surfaces of the patterned graphene/MoS2 stack via dipole engineering. In this study, the growth temperature of ASD of Ge was significantly lower than that based on precursor desorption on SiO2. The first-principles calculations revealed that Ge deposited by ASD on the graphene/MoS2 stack was not affected by charge transfer. This work provides a viable way to utilize atomically thin materials for next-generation semiconductor devices, which can be applicable for “Beyond Moore” and “More Moore” approaches.
