“…In this study, the properties of interfaces formed by PtSe 2 and a series of 2D metals in both the vertical and lateral directions were systematically investigated using first-principles calculations. 43,70,71 We observed that in the lateral direction, PtSe 2 formed an n-type ohmic contact with Hf 2 C(OH) 2 /Nb 2 C(OH) 2 and a p-type ohmic contact with borophene/NbSe 2 /V 2 CF 2 /Nb 2 CO 2 . In addition, n-type Schottky contacts were formed for V 2 C(OH) 2 /Hf 2 CF 2 , and p-type Schottky contacts were formed for Nb 2 CF 2 /TaS 2 .…”
