“…Other 2H-TMDs monolayer, including VS 2 [12,14], VTe 2 [12,15], MX 2 (M = Nb, Ta; X = Se, Te) [15], and MCl 2 (M = Fe, Co, and Ni) [16], also exhibit intrinsic FM order. On the contrary, pristine and undoped 2H-MX 2 (M = Mo, W; X = S, Se) [17][18][19][20] monolayers are nonmagnetic materials due to their utterly symmetric density of states for the spin-up and spin-down channels, limiting their potential applications in spintronics. Although the VSe 2 monolayer also has 1T phase (octahedral coordination), it is metallic and has higher formation energy than 2H phase (trigonal prismatic coordination) [21,22], which is not explored in this work.…”
