Abstract
Single-crystalline monolayer hexagonal WS<sub>2</sub> is segmented into alternating triangular domains: sulfur-vacancy (SV)-rich and tungsten-vacancy (WV)-rich domains. The WV-rich domain with deep-trap states reveals an electron-dedoping effect, and the electron mobility and photoluminescence are lower than those of the SV-rich domain with shallow-donor states by one order of magnitude. The vacancy-induced strain and doping effects are investigated via Raman and scanning photoelectron microscopy.
