Valley and band structure engineering of folded MoS2 bilayers

TLDR
By folding exfoliated MoS2 monolayers-MoS2 bilayers with different stacking orders, this work provides an effective and versatile means to engineer transition-metal dichalcogenide materials with desirable electronic and optical properties.
Abstract
Folding MoS2 monolayers to obtain bilayers with different stacking orders results in enhanced valley- and spin-polarizations compared with natural Bernal-stacked bilayers.
