We introduce transition metal-dichalcogenide (TMD) nanostructures as a promising platform for the realisation of structural colours. Processing of semianalytically calculated reflectance spectra of TMD nanosphere arrays shows a wide range…

Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have recently been shown to demonstrate non-volatile resistive switching (NVRS), offering significant advantages such as high-density integration and low energy consumption due to…

We have performed a systematic first-principles study of the effect of tensile strains on the electronic properties of early transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) monolayers MX2 (M = Sc, Ti, Zr, Hf, Ta, Cr; X = S, Se, and Te). Our…

Loop arrangements and their quantum superpositions describe several interesting many-particle states. We propose that they also describe bonding in a class of transition metal dichalcogenides. We present an effective quantum loop model for…

Monolayer Transition Metal Dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are promising candidates for quantum technologies, such as quantum dots, because they are truly two-dimensional semiconductors with a direct band gap. In this work, we analyse theoretically…

Atomically thin two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), such as MoS$_2$, are promising candidates for nanoscale photonics because of strong-light matter interactions. However, Fermi level pinning due to metal-induced…

Mesoscopic irregularly ordered and even amorphous self-assembled electronic structures were recently reported in two-dimensional metallic dichalcogenides (TMDs), created and manipulated with short light pulses or by charge injection. Apart…

Successful doping of single-layer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) remains a formidable barrier to their incorporation into a range of technologies. We use density functional theory to study doping of molybdenum and tungsten…

2D materials offer an ideal platform to study the strain fields induced by individual atomic defects, yet challenges associated with radiation damage have so-far limited electron microscopy methods to probe these atomic-scale strain fields.…

We theoretically study the formation of single-particle bound states confined by strain at the center of bubbles in monolayers of transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs). Bubbles ubiquitously form in two-dimensional crystals on top of a…

Layered van der Waals transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), generally composed of three atomic X-M-X planes in each layer (M = transition metal, X = chalcogen), provide versatile platforms for exploring diverse quantum phenomena. In…

One-dimensional grain boundaries of two-dimensional semiconducting {\MX} (M= Mo,W; X=S,Se) transition metal di-chalcogenides are typically metallic at room temperature. The metallicity has its origin in the lattice polarization, which for…

Control of impurity concentrations in semiconducting materials is essential to device technology. Because of their intrinsic confinement, the properties of two-dimensional semiconductors such as transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are…

Two-dimensional (2D) transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMD) MX$_2$ (M = Mo, W; X= S, Se, Te) possess unique properties and novel applications. In this work, we perform first-principles calculations on the van der Waals (vdW) stacked MX$_2$…

Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides $MX_2$ ($M$ = Mo,W and $X$ = Te, Se, S) in 1T' structure were predicted to be quantum spin Hall insulators based on first-principles calculations, which were quickly confirmed by multiple…

The outstanding properties of transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) monolayers and their van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures, arising from their structure and the modified electron-hole Coulomb interaction in two-dimension, make them…

Delamination of thin films from the supportive substrates is critical issues in thin film industry and technology. The emergent two-dimensional materials, atomic layered materials, such as transition metal dichalcogenides are highly…

In the last few years, interest in monomolecular layers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) has been driven by their unusual electronic and optical properties, which are very attractive for designing functional elements of new…

Applying elastic deformation can tune a material physical properties locally and reversibly. Spatially modulated lattice deformation can create a bandgap gradient, favouring photo-generated charge separation and collection in optoelectronic…

Doping via electrostatic gating is a powerful and widely used technique to tune the electron densities in layered materials. The microscopic details of how these setups affect the layered material are, however, subtle and call for careful…
