Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is well-known to change from an indirect to a direct semiconductor as a single layer.
We present insights from in-situ low-energy electron microscopy (LEEM) on the extended growth of MoS2 on the Au(111) surface at elevated temperatures of 720∘C.
Our continuous growth method leads to the formation of micron-sized single-layer MoS2 islands.
The single-domain character of these islands is confirmed by employing dark-field imaging and micro-diffraction (LEED).
This also reveals the distribution of 90:10 of the two expected MoS2 mirror domains on Au(111).
Selected-area angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES) measurements of these mirror domains underline the threefold symmetry of the two mirror domains and indicate the presence of MoS2 bilayer.
Using X-ray photoemission electron microscopy (XPEEM) and intensity-voltage LEEM (I(V))-LEEM we identify the bilayer nucleation areas at nearly full surface coverage and propose a model pathway for their formation.
