Electronic properties of the MoS2-WS2heterojunction
Open accessAbstract
We study the electronic structure of a heterojunction made of two monolayers of MoS${}_{2}$ and WS${}_{2}$. Our first-principles density functional calculations show that, unlike in the homogeneous bilayers, the heterojunction has an optically active band gap, smaller than the ones of MoS${}_{2}$ and WS${}_{2}$ single layers. We find that the optically active states of the maximum valence and minimum conduction bands are localized on opposite monolayers, and thus the lowest energy electron-holes pairs are spatially separated. Our findings portray the MoS${}_{2}$-WS${}_{2}$ bilayer as a prototypical example for band-gap engineering of atomically thin two-dimensional semiconducting heterostructures.

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.
