Large Unsaturated Magnetoresistance in Gated MoS2 Flakes
Small, EarlyView.Magnetotransport investigation of layered MoS2 crystals in field‐effect devices reveals strong dependence on thickness and carrier density. Monolayer MoS2 exhibits the highest magnetoresistance of 680%. A combination of density functional theory and Boltzmann transport equation simulations shows that band transport is not causing the magnetic behavior,
