abstract = {The catalytic sites of MoS2 monolayers towards hydrogen evolution are well known to be vacancies and edge-like defects. However, it is still very challenging to control the position, size, and propagation of defects on the basal plane of MoS2 monolayers by most of defect-engineering routes. In this work, the fabrication of etched arrays on ultra-large supported and free-standing MoS2 monolayers using focused ion beam (FIB) is reported for the first time. By tuning the Ga+ ion dose, it is possible to confine defects near the etched edges or propagate them over ultra-large areas on the basal plane. The electrocatalytic activity of the arrays toward hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) was measured by fabricating microelectrodes using a new method that preserves the catalytic sites. We demonstrate that the overpotential can be decreased up to 290 mV by assessing electrochemical activity only at the basal plane. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy images obtained on FIB patterned freestanding MoS2 monolayers reveal the presence of amorphous regions and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy indicates sulfur excess in these regions. Density-functional theory calculations provide identification of catalytic defect sites. Our results demonstrate a new rational control of amorphous-crystalline surface boundaries and future insight for defect optimization in MoS2 monolayers.},
