Claim 0:
1. A semiconductor device, comprising:
a metal chalcogenide monolayer film disposed over a substrate,
wherein the metal chalcogenide monolayer film comprises a first metal and a chalcogen selected from the group consisting of S, Se, Te, and combinations thereof, and
wherein the metal chalcogenide monolayer film has a first surface portion and a second surface portion; and
a metal layer disposed over the metal chalcogenide monolayer film,
wherein the metal layer comprises a second metal,
the metal layer is disposed over the first surface portion and not over the second surface portion, and
wherein the metal layer is chemically bonded to the metal chalcogenide monolayer film.
