Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to a flow reactor system (100) and a flow reaction method (200). The flow reactor system (100) comprises liquid pumps (110) for communicating liquid reagents based on a set of flow conditions, a fluid pump (200) for communicating a carrier fluid that is immiscible with the liquid reagents; a fluidic mixer (130) for mixing the liquid reagents into a liquid mixture, a measurement device (150) for measuring properties of liquid plugs (140) discharged from an outlet (136) of the fluidic mixer (130); and a control module configured for controlling the liquid pumps (110) and adjusting the flow conditions based on the measured properties of the liquid plugs (140), wherein the liquid plugs (140) are representative of different flow conditions.

Abstract: A method of forming a transition metal dichalcogenide layer on a substrate is provided. The method may include providing a transition metal oxide, a chalcogen source, a non-gaseous chalcogen scavenger, and a substrate, wherein the substrate is disposed downstream of the transition metal oxide and the chalcogen source, and wherein the non-gaseous chalcogen scavenger is disposed in proximity to the transition metal oxide; generating vapors of the transition metal oxide and vapors of the chalcogen source, wherein the non-gaseous chalcogen scavenger reacts preferentially with the vapors of the chalcogen source; disposing the vapors generated from the transition metal oxide and the chalcogen source on the substrate; and reacting the vapors of the transition metal oxide and the chalcogen source on the substrate to obtain the transition metal dichalcogenide layer on the substrate. An arrangement for forming a transition metal dichalcogenide layer on a substrate is also provided.
