Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides are promising materials for photoelectronic devices. Among them, molybdenum disulphide (MoS$_2$) and tungsten disulphide (WS$_2$) are some of the best candidates due to their favorable band gap…

Due to the strong quantum confinement effect, few-layer {\gamma}-InSe exhibits a layer-dependent bandgap, spanning the visible and near infrared regions, and thus recently draws tremendous attention. As a two-dimensional material, the…

The bandgap of MoS2 is highly strain-tunable which results in the modulation of its electrical conductivity and manifests itself as the piezoresistive effect while a piezoelectric effect was also observed in odd-layered MoS2 with broken…
