Direct laser writing has been proved to be capable for effective modulation of optical and electrical properties of various nanomaterials. In this work, we designed a flexible direct laser writing approach to engineer photoluminescence (PL) properties of monolayer MoS2 and present its potential application in optical recording. PL spectra evolution of monolayer MoS2 under continuous-wave laser writing has been explored, where its PL energy can be precisely controlled by changing the writing time. This feature enables a multimode optical recording with spectral contrast in monolayer limit materials for high-capacity data storage technologies. Here, we constructed a proof-of-principle multimode optical recording on monolayer MoS2 based on the PL wavelength division multiplexing scheme and discussed the relevant challenges for practical applications. Our flexible approach with a mask-free feature and high spatial resolution is promising for applications in two-dimensional material-based information storage and optoelectronic devices.
