Tungsten Disulfide, Sputtering Target, 99.5%, 1 inch dia x 0.125 inch th.

Tungsten disulfide is used as a sputtering target material to create thin films that serve as solid-state lubricants and transition metal dichalcogenide layers in electronic devices.

As a transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC), monolayer WS2 is researched for its direct bandgap properties in next-generation field-effect transistors and valleytronic applications.

WS2 is frequently synthesized into inorganic transition metal nanotubes and fullerene-like nanoparticles for use as high-performance lubricant additives and catalysts.

The strong photoluminescence and excitonic effects of WS2 thin films make it a candidate for ultra-thin photodetectors and light-emitting diodes.
