Molybdenum disulfide (MoS${}_{2}$) is a promising material for making two-dimensional crystals and flexible electronic optoelectronic devices at the nanoscale. MoS${}_{2}$ flakes can show high mobilities have even been integrated in nanocircuits. A fundamental requirement such use efficient thermal transport. Electronic transport generates heat which needs to be evacuated, more crucially so nanostructures. Anharmonic phonon-phonon scattering dominant intrinsic limitation insulators. Here,...

Abstract A method for graphene transfer which is referred to as “bifacial transfer” that allows of multilayer chemical vapor deposition (CVD) from both sides a native metal substrate, such an as‐received nickel catalyst, presented. In traditional methods, the on “non‐preferred” side, is, bottom removed with oxygen plasma before removal catalyst in etchant solution. Although this treatment prevents undesired aggregation films, it fails utilize CVD‐grown graphene. The bifacial reduces cost by...

Photon detectors featuring single-photon sensitivity play a crucial role in various scientific domains, including high-energy physics, astronomy, and quantum optics. Fast response time, high efficiency, minimal dark counts are the characteristics that render them ideal candidates for detecting individual photons with exceptional signal-to-noise ratios, at frequencies range of hundreds MHz. Here, we report on our first design operational results Hybrid Detector (HPD) combines efficiency...

Micro-engineering is increasingly interested in the use of thin films with thicknesses less than 20nm. Before integrating these promising materials into complex Nano Electro Mechanical Systems (NEMS), their properties must be characterized. They transferred onto specific substrates for analysis. Current manipulation techniques are not suitable transfer as they do allow selection parts object that manipulated, and quality sample altered by traces chemical residues.
