Abstract Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are ideal candidates to explore the manifestation of spin-valley physics under external stimuli. In this study, we investigate influence strain on spin and orbital angular momenta, effective g -factors, Berry curvatures several monolayer TMDCs (Mo W based) using a full ab initio approach. At K -valleys, find surprising decrease conduction band e...

Two-dimensional (2D) materials beyond graphene have drawn a lot of attention recently. Among the large family of 2D materials, transitional metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), for example, molybdenum disulfides (MoS2) and tungsten diselenides (WSe2), have been demonstrated to be good candidates for advanced electronics, optoelectronics, and other applications. Growth of large single-crystalline doma...

2D materials have raised a lot of interest in the last decades, due to their novel and diverse properties, particularly for energy technology applications where such as molybdenum disulfide are known outstanding catalytic ability. While intensive research is devoted transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDCs) semiconductor characterization, comprehensive understanding metal/semiconductor heterojunc...

Van der Waals heterojunctions are fast-emerging quantum structures fabricated by the controlled stacking of two-dimensional (2D) materials. Owing to atomically thin thickness, their carrier properties not only determined host material itself, but also defined interlayer interactions, including dielectric environment, charge trapping centers, and angles. The abundant constituents without limitat...

Abstract This work demonstrates a large area process for atomically thin 2D semiconductors to unlock the technological upscale required their commercial uptake. The new atomic layer deposition (ALD) and conversion technique yields performance uniformity tunability. Like graphene, Transition Metal Dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are prone upscaling challenges limiting They challenging grow uniformly on ...

The quasiparticle spectra of atomically thin semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) and their response to an ultrafast optical excitation critically depend on interactions with the underlying substrate. Here, we present a comparative time- angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (TR-ARPES) study transient electronic structure carrier dynamics in single- bilayer TMDCs MoS2 WS2...

Semiconducting transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) provide a fascinating discovery platform for strong light–matter interaction effects in the visible spectrum at ambient conditions. While most of works have focused on hybridizing excitons with resonant photonic modes external mirrors, cavities, or nanostructures, intriguingly, TMDC flakes subwavelength thickness can themselves act as nano...
