Rhenium disulfide (ReS2) is a two‐dimensional (2D) group VII transition metal
dichalcogenide (TMD). It is attributed with structural and vibrational anisotropy, layer …

We report a van der Waals heterostructure formed by monolayers of MoS2 and ReS2 with a
type-I band alignment. First-principle calculations show that in this heterostructure, both the …

Birefringence is an inherent optical property of anisotropic materials introduced by the
anisotropic confinement in their crystal structures. It enables manipulation of light …

The deceptively simple tin selenide (SnSe) film has emerged as an appealing 2D material
with a narrow bandgap, high charge carrier mobility, and significant thermoelectric figure of …

Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides provide a unique platform to study
excitons in confined structures. Recently, several important aspects of excitons in these …

Starting with the discovery of graphene in 2004, the interest in two‐dimensional materials
since then has been exponentially growing. Across many disciplines, their exceptional …

Atomically thin materials such as graphene or MoS2 are of high in-plane symmetry. Crystals
with reduced symmetry hold the promise for novel optoelectronic devices based on their …

Intriguing anisotropic electrical and optoelectrical properties in two-dimensional (2D)
materials are currently gaining increasing interest both for fundamental research and …

Monolayer of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), with lamellar structure as that of
graphene, has attracted significant attentions in optoelectronics and photonics. Here, we …
