Two-dimensional electronic transport and surface electron accumulation in MoS2

In absence of dangling bonds, van der Waals layered crystals are expected to have inert surfaces. In contrast, here the authors show presence of surface electron accumulation in MoS2, with a surface electron concentration nearly four orders of magnitude higher than that of MoS2 inner bulk.
