Semiconductor-metal transition in semiconducting bilayer sheets of transition metal dichalcogenides

open access: yes, 2012
Using first-principles calculations we show that the band gap of bilayer sheets of semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) can be reduced smoothly by applying vertical compressive pressure.

Boosting quantum yields in two-dimensional semiconductors via proximal metal plates

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
The short exciton lifetime and strong exciton-exciton interaction in transition metal dichalcogenides limit the efficiency of exciton emission. Here, the authors show that exciton-exciton interaction in monolayer WS2 can be screened using proximal metal ...

DNA‐Templated 2D Heterostructures as Phototriggered Dynamic Nanohybrids: From Releasing Molecular Loads to Controlling Enzyme Biocatalytic Function

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
DNA strands are employed both as dynamic linkers and nanoscale templates for the integration of Ag2S nanoparticles on MoS2, which in turn imparted photothermal responsiveness; this feature permits the selective cargo (fluorophore, quantum dots or an enzyme) release from the MoS2 surface in response to local heat induced by light irradiation.

Robust growth of two-dimensional metal dichalcogenides and their alloys by active chalcogen monomer supply

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
The large-area growth of 2D transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) requires a precise control of metal and chalcogen precursors. Here, the authors implement a strategy using active chalcogen monomer supply to grow monolayer TMDs and their alloys ...

From Layers to Nanotubes: Transition Metal Disulfides TMS2

open access: yes, 2012
MoS2 and WS2 layered transition-metal dichalcogenides are indirect band gap semiconductors in their bulk forms. Thinned to a monolayer, they undergo a transition and become direct band gap materials.

Atomic‐Scale Light Coupling Control in Ultrathin Photonic Membranes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Ultrathin photonic nanomembranes provide atomic‐scale control over the coupling between incident light and high‐Q photonic modes, enabling angstrom‐level resonance tuning and strong field confinement. When integrated with TMD monolayers, they further yield enhanced light–matter interactions, offering a versatile platform for advancing quantum photonics,
