Research on photocatalysis has boomed in the past two decades as it provides a
sustainable solution to degrade organic pollutants. Among the several classes of …

Two-dimensional (2D) Janus materials due to their asymmetric structures show fascinating
spintronic and piezoelectric properties making them a research hot spot in recent years. In …

In this article, using first-principles calculations, we propose XMSiY 2 (X= S, Se; M= Mo, W;
and Y= N, P) monolayers as a Janus form of MA 2 Z 4 family and investigate their electronic …

In this paper, based on first principles calculations, we propose functionalization of group-III
monochalcogenides with halogen atoms to form Janus MXY (M= Al, Ga, In; X= Se, Te; Y= Br …

Abstract Janus two-dimensional (2D) materials with asymmetric structures and intrinsic
dipole moments have recently drawn enormous attention due to their appealing …

In this investigation, MoS2 nanosheets were synthesized via the hydrothermal method. The
effects of precursor pH on the properties of as-synthesized MoS2 nanostructures have been …

Atomic-layered material Bi 2 O 2 Se has emerged as a novel two-dimensional (2D)
semiconductor with the moderate band gap, high carrier mobility and excellent …

Defects in transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) can serve as active sites in catalytic
reactions. In this work, by means of first‐principles calculations, the catalytic activities of WX2 …

In this study, the density functional theory (DFT) is used to investigate the effects of
passivating line sulfur vacancies by non-metal species (C, N, O, F, OH and NH 2) in …

Abstract MoS 2 and carbon (C)-doped MoS 2 thin films were fabricated using the DC
unbalanced magnetron sputtering (DC-UBMS) method for application in photodetector …
