It is demonstrated that the lowest achievable sulfurization temperature depends strongly on the oxygen background during sulfurization. This dependence arises because Ti-O bonds present a substantial kinetic and thermodynamic barrier to TiS2 formation. Lowering the sulfurization temperature is important to make smooth films, and to enable integration of TiS2 and related transition metal dichalcogenides\u2014including metastable phases and alloys\u2014into device technology.<\/p>\n<p>Paper available at :<a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/adfm.202003617.\"> https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/adfm.202003617<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\t\t\t\t<![CDATA[]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":476,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-450","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-new-papers"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/physics.iisc.ac.in\/~aksy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/450"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/physics.iisc.ac.in\/~aksy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/physics.iisc.ac.in\/~aksy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/physics.iisc.ac.in\/~aksy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/physics.iisc.ac.in\/~aksy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=450"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/physics.iisc.ac.in\/~aksy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/450\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":470,"href":"https:\/\/physics.iisc.ac.in\/~aksy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/450\/revisions\/470"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/physics.iisc.ac.in\/~aksy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/476"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/physics.iisc.ac.in\/~aksy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=450"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/physics.iisc.ac.in\/~aksy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=450"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/physics.iisc.ac.in\/~aksy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=450"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
