Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMD) have emerged as versatile materials with the potential to be applied in next-generation electronics and optoelectronics devices owing to their attractive physical properties such as direct bandgap, spin-coupled valley degrees of freedom, etc. High quality TMDs can be synthesized by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) on Si substrates. However, the as grown monolayers show poor optical quality due to the detrimental interaction with the dielectric environment of the substrate. It has been shown recently that encapsulation in hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) is crucial to access the intrinsic optical quality of CVD grown monolayer TMDs. This motivates us to develop growth procedures for direct growth of monolayer TMDs on exfoliated and CVD grown hBN layers. The grown TMDs on hBN were characterized using optical microscopy, atomic force microscopy, Raman spectroscopy and photoluminescence spectroscopy to reveal their morphological, structural and optical properties.
