Monolayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), among other two-dimensional transition-metal dichalcogenides materials, is widely used in a broad range of industries due to its extraordinarily different material properties compared to its bulk counterpart. However, such unique behavior may be greatly affected by its capacity of energy dissipation or heat conduction, largely attributed to its inherent phonon scattering properties. In addition, the phonon properties of MoS2 may be greatly affected by parameters such as temperature, defect concentration, etc., reflected by the Raman spectra evolution of A1g or E2g peaks. In this light, we analyze the combined influences of temperature and defect concentration on phonon scattering for the first time. We specifically elaborate experiments based on the temperature-dependent Raman spectroscopy in order to characterize the effect of defects on phonon scattering properties of MoS2. On this basis, a predictive model is developed for the estimation of phonon lifetime under different defect concentrations that may be served as a brief yet accurate and efficient designer tool in the early stage of defect/phonon engineering. In addition, our study may provide more physical insights toward a comprehensive understanding of the phonon behavior of MoS2, thus paving a way for more practical application potentials enabled by low-dimensional materials.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
