    Abstract: Disclosed herein are a method of forming a transition metal dichalcogenide thin film and a method of manufacturing a device including the same. The method of forming a transition metal dichalcogenide thin film includes: providing a substrate in a reaction chamber; depositing a transition metal dichalcogenide thin film on the substrate using a sputtering process that uses a transition metal precursor and a chalcogen precursor and is performed at a first temperature; and injecting the chalcogen precursor in a gas state and heat-treating the transition metal dichalcogenide thin film at a second temperature that is higher than the first temperature. The substrate may include a sapphire substrate, a silicon oxide (SiO2) substrate, a nanocrystalline graphene substrate, or a molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) substrate.

    Abstract: A photodetector having a small form factor and having high detection efficiency with respect to both visible light and infrared rays may include a first electrode, a collector layer on the first electrode, a tunnel barrier layer on the collector layer, a graphene layer on the tunnel barrier layer, an emitter layer on the graphene layer, and a second electrode on the emitter layer. The photodetector may be included in an image sensor. An image sensor may include a substrate, an insulating layer on the substrate, and a plurality of photodetectors on the insulating layer. The photodetectors may be aligned with each other in a direction extending parallel or perpendicular to a top surface of the insulating layer. The photodetector may be included in a LiDAR system.

    Abstract: A pellicle configured to protecting a photomask from external contaminants may include a metal catalyst layer and a pellicle membrane including a 2D material on the metal catalyst layer, wherein the metal catalyst layer supports edge regions of the pellicle membrane and does not support a central region of the pellicle membrane. The metal catalyst layer may be on a substrate, such that the substrate and the metal catalyst layer collectively support the edge region of the pellicle membrane and do not support the central region of the pellicle membrane. The pellicle may be formed based on growing the 2D material on the metal catalyst layer and etching an inner region of the metal catalyst layer that supports the central region of the formed pellicle membrane.
