Room-temperature continuous-wave lasing-like emission from solution-processed bulk monolayer MoS 2 thin films

Nature · By Boxuan Zhou ·

The Brief

  • Researchers report room-temperature continuous-wave lasing-like emission from solution-processed bulk monolayer MoS2 thin films.
  • The paper is published in Nature Communications on 13 November 2026 (doi:10.1038/s41467-026-79012-8).
  • The authors state the films are solution-processable and aim to preserve monolayer optical properties while scaling up atomically thin light emitters.

Why it matters

Solution-processed films that keep monolayer-like optical behaviour could offer a scalable route to atomically thin light emitters, which are difficult to produce in large quantities.

Who’s affected

  • researchers working on 2D materials and photonics
  • engineers interested in scalable light-emitting devices

Nature Communications, Published online: 13 November 2026; doi:10.1038/s41467-026-79012-8 Scaling up atomically thin light emitters remains challenging. Here, authors develop solution-processable bulk-monolayer MoS2 films that preserve monolayer optical properties and exhibit…
