Understanding quasiparticle band structures of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) is critical for technological advances of these materials for atomic layer electronics and photonics. Although theoretical calculations to date have shown qualitatively similar features, there exist subtle differences which can lead to important consequences in the device characteristics. For example, most calculations have shown that all single layer (SL) TMDs have direct band gaps, while some have shown that $SL-WSe_2$ have an indirect gap. Moreover, there are large variations in the reported quasiparticle gaps, corresponding to large variations in exciton binding energies. By using a comprehensive form of scanning tunneling spectroscopy, we have revealed detailed quasiparticle electronic structures in TMDs, including the quasi-particle gaps, critical point energy locations and their origins in the Brillouin Zones (BZs). We show that $SL-WSe_2$ actually has an indirect quasi-particle gap with the conduction band minimum located at the Q point (instead of K), albeit the two states are nearly degenerate. Its implications on optical properties are discussed. We have further observed rich quasi-particle electronic structures of TMDs as a function of atomic structures and spin-orbital couplings.
Two-dimensional transition-metal dichalcogendes $MX_2$ (es. MoS$_2$, WS$_2$, MoSe$_2$, ldots) are among the most promising materials for bandgap engineering. Widely studied in these compounds, by means of ab-initio techniques, is the possibility of t
We develop a microscopic and atomistic theory of electron spin-based qubits in gated quantum dots in a single layer of transition metal dichalcogenides. The qubits are identified with two degenerate locked spin and valley states in a gated quantum do
Quantum conductance calculations on the mechanically deformed monolayers of MoS$_2$ and WS$_2$ were performed using the non-equlibrium Greens functions method combined with the Landauer-B{u}ttiker approach for ballistic transport together with the de
Materials with large magnetocrystalline anisotropy and strong electric field effects are highly needed to develop new types of memory devices based on electric field control of spin orientations. Instead of using modified transition metal films, we p
We have obtained analytical expressions for the q-dependent static spin susceptibility of monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides, considering both the electron-doped and hole-doped cases. Our results are applied to calculate spin-related physical
