Size selection and thin-film assembly of MoS2 elucidates thousandfold conductivity enhancement in few-layer nanosheet networks

Abstract

Printed electronics based on liquid-exfoliated nanosheet networks are limited by inter-nanosheet junctions and thick films which hinder field-effect gating. Here, few-layer molybdenum disulfide nanosheets are assembled by Langmuir deposition into thin films, and size selection is shown to lead to a thousandfold conductivity enhancement with potential applicability to all nanosheet networks.
