Abstract

Currently, the transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) such as MoS2 have open up the way to the fulfilment of ultrathin and ultralight optoelectronic devices. With the possible applications of TMDCs, the evolvement of ultrathin solar cells is appealing due to the possible reduction in cost and suitability of these materials for flexible and ultralight photovoltaics. In this work, a 70-nm thick MoS2 based MOS device is demonstrated. The results confirm that electron-hole pairs are generated when optical light with different wavelengths was incuced on it. The optical results confirm that the MoS2 has excellent potential to be used in solar cell applications.
