Direct TEM observations of growth mechanisms of two-dimensional MoS2 flakes

MoS2 nanostructures are potentially useful in electronic applications. Here, Fei et al. show using in situ electron microscopy that MoS2grows in a vertical manner at low temperature, then rotates to horizontal structures, and finally develops in size by merging adjacent flakes at high temperature.
