Engineering Bandgaps of Monolayer MoS₂ and WS₂ on Fluoropolymer Substrates by Electrostatically Tuned Many‐Body Effects

Intrinsic electrical and excitonic properties of monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenides can be revealed on CYTOP fluoropolymer substrates with greatly suppressed unintentional doping and dielectric screening. Ambipolar transport behavior is observed in monolayer WS2 by applying solid-state back gates. The excitonic properties of monolayer MoS2 and WS2 are determined by intricate interplays between the bandgap renormalization, Pauli blocking, and carrier screening against carrier doping.
