Extended Data Fig. 7. r-MoS2 efficacy as a heat spreader.

Extended Data Fig. 7

a, Finite element simulations of the linear temperature profiles of Au electrodes covered with MoS2 and r-MoS2. b, SiNx as heat spreaders for Au electrodes. Electrical properties of 10-nm-thick, 100-nm-wide and 10-μm-long Au electrodes before and after 16 nm SiNx film deposition onto the electrodes using plasma-enhanced chemical vapour deposition. In contrast to r-MoS2, the direct deposition of an ultrathin inorganic film such as SiNx with a comparable κ to κ|| of r-MoS2 negatively affects the performance of the Au electrodes.
