Ultrafast charge transfer in atomically thin MoS2/WS2 heterostructures

TL;DR: It is shown that hole transfer from the MoS2 layer to the WS2 layer takes place within 50 fs after optical excitation, a remarkable rate for van der Waals coupled two-dimensional layers, which can enable novel two- dimensional devices for optoelectronics and light harvesting.
Journal ArticleDOI

Band offsets and heterostructures of two-dimensional semiconductors

TL;DR: In this paper, the band offsets and heterostructures of monolayer and few-layer transition-metal dichalcogenides MX2 (M = Mo, W; X = S, Se, Te) are investigated from first principles calculations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermally driven crossover from indirect toward direct bandgap in 2D Semiconductors: MoSe2 versus MoS2

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that, in a few-layer sample where the indirect bandgap and direct bandgap are nearly degenerate, the temperature rise can effectively drive the system toward the 2D limit by thermally decoupling neighboring layers via interlayer thermal expansion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Defects activated photoluminescence in two-dimensional semiconductors: interplay between bound, charged, and free excitons

TL;DR: This work investigates effects of anion vacancies in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides as two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors where the vacancies density is controlled by α-particle irradiation or thermal-annealing and finds a new, sub-bandgap emission peak as well as increase in overall photoluminescence intensity as a result of the vacancy generation.
