Abstract:Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides offer an appropriate
platform for developing advanced electronics beyond graphene. Similar
to two-dimensional molecular frameworks, the electronic properties
of such monolayers can be sensitive to perturbations from the surroundings;
the implied tunability of electronic structure is of great interest.
Using scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy, we demonstrated
a bandgap engineering technique in two monolayer materials, MoS2 and PtTe2, with the tunneling current … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
