Single adsorption of different atoms on pristine two-dimensional monolayer MoS2 have been systematically investigated by using density functional calculations with van der Waals correction. The adatoms cover alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, main group metal, 3d-transition metals, coinage metal and nonmetal atoms. Depending on the adatom type, metallic, semimetallic or semiconducting behavior can be found in direct bandgap monolayer MoS2. Additionally, local or long-range magnetic moments of two-dimensional MoS2 sheet can also attained through the adsorption. The detailed atomic-scale knowledge of single adsorption on MoS2 monolayer is important not only for the sake of a theoretical understanding, but also device level deposition technological application.
The mechanism of apatite deposition on chemically treated Ti surfaces still is being studied. In this study, simulated body fluid, calcium aqueous solution, phosphate aqueous solution, and accelerated calcification solution are used as media to investigate the order of calcium and phosphate ion deposition on chemically treated Ti surfaces. The results of inductively coupled plasma spectra, scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive X-ray analysis show that calcium deposition is the prerequisite for phosphate ion deposition.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
