Electrical, Electronic And Optical Properties Of Mos2 & Ws2, Weitao Tang

Theses

Two dimensional materials such as graphene, boron nitride and transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDCs) monolayers have arisen as a new class of materials with unique properties at monolayer thickness. Their electrical, electronic and optical properties are of great importance for a variety of applications in optoelectronics as light emitters, detectors, and photovoltaic devices. This work focuses on MoS₂ and WS₂, which are two important members of the TMDC class of materials. The properties of monolayer MoS₂ and WS₂ are investigated as well as the properties of bulk MoS₂ and WS₂ to provide an understanding …

Electrical, Electronic And Optical Properties Of Mose2 And Wse2, Sushant Shashikant Rassay

Theses

Transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDC) crystals have emerged as a new class of semiconductors that display distinctive properties at monolayer thickness. Their electrical, electronic and optical properties are of particular interest and importance for applications in optoelectronics as light emitters, detectors, and photovoltaic devices. Monolayer MoSe₂ and WSe₂ have an intrinsic band-gap in the visible region of the solar spectrum (400nm - 700nm) which makes them distinct from other 2-D materials like graphene.

In this study, the electrical, electronic and optical properties of monolayer and bulk MoSe₂ and WSe₂ are studied. The electronic band structures are presented for …
