General Description
Molybdenum Ditelluride MoTe2 (α-MoTe2) is a semiconductor with an indirect band gap of around 1.0 eV in bulk crystal or powder form, and a direct band-gap of about 1.1 eV in monolayer films. Like MoS2 and other 2D materials, MoTe2 has a layered structure. It is composed of hexagonal sheets of molybdenum atoms - these are located between two hexagonal planes of tellurium atoms. Individual sheets are held together by weak Van der Waals forces, and are stacked with 2H symmetry.
It has a characteristic layered structure direct band-gap that extends to near infrared (NIR) wavelengths. Combined with the advantages of wet chemical exfoliation, MoTe2 has great potential for electronics - especially in photovoltaic technologies.
MoTe2 is also semi-metallic, with bulk MoTe2 exhibiting superconductivity at a transition temperature of 0.10 K.
The hexagonal structure of Molybdenum ditelluride (MoTe2).
Applications
Monolayer or few-layer 2D MoTe2 has a direct band-gap and finds applications in transistors, photo-detectors, and photovoltaics.
Synthesis
Molybdenum ditelluride MoTe2 is manufactured using chemical vapour transport (CVT) crystallisation, with purities in excess of 99.999% achieved.
Usage
Molybdenum ditelluride MoTe2 single crystal can be used to create monolayer and few-layer MoSe2 sheets by mechanical or liquid exfoliation.
