The indirect to direct band gap transition in multilayered MoS2 as predicted by screened hybrid density functional theory

Ellis, Jason K., Lucero, Melissa J., Scuseria, Gustavo E.·2011·Applied Physics Letters

Abstract

Molybdenite (MoS2) undergoes a transition from an indirect to direct gap semiconductor exhibiting strong photoluminescence when confined in a 2D monolayer. We investigate the effect of interlayer interactions on the band structure and density of states using the screened hybrid functional of Heyd, Scuseria, and Ernzerhof. We show that for the bulk and monolayer systems, our short-range screened hybrid functional produces band gaps in good agreement with experiment. Our functional includes only interlayer interactions of non-van der Waals origin, predicts properties consistent with recent experiments, and provides predictions for few-layered systems.

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.
