Electronic and optical properties of planar MoS2/WS2 heterostructure
https://doi.org/10.26907/mrsej-24108
Abstract
The electronic structure and optical properties of the MoS2/WS2 planar heterostructure are studied based on density functional theory. Compared with single-layer MoS2 and WS2, the MoS2/WS2 heterostructure has an indirect and very narrow band gap. In the visible region of the light spectrum, the maximum values of dielectric constant, refractive index and attenuation coefficient for MoS2/WS2 are shifted to the blue region of the spectrum.
