Description
Summary:In the quest to discover the properties of planar semiconductors, two‐dimensional molybdenum trioxide and dichalcogenides have recently attracted a large amount of interest. This family, which includes molybdenum trioxide (MoO3), disulphide (MoS2), diselenide (MoSe2) and ditelluride (MoTe2), possesses many unique properties that make its compounds appealing for a wide range of applications. These properties can be thickness dependent and may be manipulated via a large number of physical and chemical processes. In this Feature Article, a comprehensive review is delivered of the fundamental properties, synthesis techniques and applications of layered and planar MoO3, MoS2, MoSe2, and MoTe2 along with their future prospects. In the quest for alternative two‐dimensional semiconductors, layered molybdenum trioxide and dichalcogenides are gaining significant scientific interest. This Feature Article delivers a comprehensive review of the fundamental properties, synthesis techniques, and applications of layered MoO3, MoS2, MoSe2, and MoTe2 as well as exploring their future prospects in the field of two‐dimensional semiconductors.
