Two-dimensional MoS2-based materials are considered to be one of the most attractive materials for next-generation nanoelectronics. The electrostatic properties are important in designing and understanding the performance of MoS2-based devices. By using Kelvin probe force microscopy, we show that few-layer MoS2 sheets exhibit uniform surface potential and charge distributions on their surfaces but have relatively lower surface potentials on the edges, folded areas as well as defect grain boundaries.
