The absence of a direct-to-indirect band gap transition in ReS2 when going from the monolayer to bulk makes it special among the other semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides.

Although layered metal dinitrides (MN2) have been proposed as the cousins of transition-metal dichalcogenides, the non-MoS2-type geometries are found to be more favourable in two-dimensional (2D) MN2 nanosheets. In this...

The chalcogen vacancy defects in various transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) have been studied using density functional theory (DFT) calculation. Results reveal that (i) the dissociation energy value depends on both nature of chalcogen and transition metal, (ii) the work function depends marginally on the single or double vacancies, (iii) the defect transforms direct band gap to indirect band gap materials (i.e. the pristine materials show KVKC transition whereas defective materials show ΓVKC) and (iii) the d-orbital of the transition metal plays a vital role in the formation of impurity band.
