Controlled preferential oxidation of grain boundaries in monolayer tungsten disulfide for direct optical imaging.

Synthetic 2D crystal films growth by chemical vapour deposition are typically polycrystalline and determining grain size within domains and continuous films is crucial for determining their structure. Here we show that grain boundaries in the 2D transition metal dichalcogenide WS2, grown by CVD can...
