Dynamics of a Sulfur Vacancy

Caption

The top graph illustrates the switching processes between the neutral level (0 state) and the charged level (-1 state) that occur when an electron (red circle) from the flowing current is trapped (top left) or released (top right) at the sulfur vacancy defect (marked by green circle). The lower graph shows switching events in the current that occur when electrons from the current passing through the MoS2 sample are trapped at the vacancy, or released from the vacancy.
