Abstract

The structural, electronic, and optical properties of heterostructures formed by transition metal dichalcogenides MX 2 (M = Mo, W; X = S, Se) and graphene-like zinc oxide (ZnO) were investigated using first-principles calculations. The interlayer interaction in all heterostructures was characterized by van der Waals forces. Type-II band alignment occurs at the MoS 2/ZnO and WS 2/ZnO interfaces, together with the large built-in electric field across the interface, suggesting effective photogenerated-charge separation. Meanwhile, type-I band alignment occurs at the MoSe 2/ZnO and WSe 2/ZnO interfaces. Moreover, all heterostructures exhibit excellent optical absorption in the visible and infrared regions, which is vital for optical applications.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
