Deskripsi

Light emitters can be induced in transition metal dichalcogenides by defect engineering, but challenges remain in their controlled spatial positioning. Here, the authors irradiate monolayer MoS2 with a sub-nm focused helium ion beam to deterministically create defects, and obtain spectrally narrow emission lines that produce photons in the visible spectral range
