Abstract

Lateral WS2-MoS2 heterostructures are synthesized by a shortcut one-step growth recipe with low-cost and soluble salts. The 2D spatial distributions of the built-in potential and the related electric field of the lateral WS2-MoS2 heterostructure are quantitatively analyzed by scanning Kelvin probe force microscopy revealing the fundamental attributes of the lateral heterostructure devices.
