Theoretical study of defect impact on two-dimensional MoS2

Abstract: Our theoretical findings demonstrate for the first time a possibility of band-gap engineering of monolayer MoS 2 crystals by oxygen and the presence of vacancies. Oxygen atoms are revealed to substitute sulfur ones, forming stable MoS 2 x O x ternary compounds, or adsorb on top of the sulfur atoms. The substituting oxygen provides a decrease of the band gap from 1.86 to 1.64 eV and transforms the material from a direct-gap to an indirect-gap semiconductor. The surface adsorbed oxygen atoms decrease the band ga… Show more

“…The value of such underestimation depends on the shift of eigenvalues in the energy range analyzed due to the so‐called correlation effects. Nevertheless, we have previously obtained a good agreement between experimental data and our theoretical findings for TMDs employing the fact that the corresponding eigenfunctions at the extrema points of the band structure are mainly composed of d ‐electron states of the metal atoms . So, they undergo an almost equal shift.…”

“…4 p ‐ (5 p ‐) electronic states of Mo (W) were considered as valence states. A similar approach has been already successfully tested in the calculations for individual layers of MoS 2 , MoSe 2 , WS 2 , and WSe 2 …”
