Abstract

Read online

Precise control of the growth of transition metal dichalcogenides layers in atomically thin van der Waals heterostructures has gained significant attention. Here, the authors report 100% overlapped vertical ReS2/WS2heterostructures by utilizing the twinned growth behaviour of two-dimensional materials.
