ABSTRACT
We report an electrochemical method for doping two-dimensional (2D) superatomic semiconductor Re6Se8Cl2 that significantly improves the material's electrical transport while retaining the in-plane and stacking structures. The electrochemical reduction induces the complete dissociation of chloride anions from the surface of each superatomic nanosheet. After the material is dehalogenated, we observe the electrical conductivity (σ) increases by two orders of magnitude while the 3D electron carrier density (n3D) increases by three orders of magnitude. In addition, the thermal activation energy (Ea) and electron mobility (µe) decrease. We conclude that we have achieved effective electron-doping in 2D superatomic Re6Se8Cl2, which significantly improves the electrical transport properties. Our work sets the foundation for electrochemically doping and tuning the transport properties of other 2D superatomic materials.
