In this work, we have systematically studied the role of point defects in the recombination time of monolayer MoS$_2$ using time-dependent ab initio non-adiabatic molecular dynamics simulations. Various types of point defects, such as S vacancy, S interstitial, Mo vacancy and Mo interstitial have been considered. We show that defects strongly accelerate the electron-hole recombination, especially interstitial S atoms do that by 3 orders of magnitude higher compared to pristine MoS$_2$. Mo defects (both vacancy and interstitial) introduce a multitude of de-excitation pathways via various defect levels in the energy gap. The results of this study provide some fundamental understanding of photoinduced de-excitation dynamics in presence of defects in highly technologically relevant 2D MoS$_2$.

We present an ultra-high vacuum scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) study of structural defects in molybdenum disulfide thin films grown on silicon substrates by chemical vapor deposition. A distinctive type of grain boundary periodically arranged in
side an isolated triangular domain, along with other inter-domain grain boundaries of various types, is observed. These periodic defects, about 50 nm apart and a few nanometers in width, remain hidden in optical or low-resolution microscopy studies. We report a complex growth mechanism that produces 2D nucleation and spiral growth features that can explain the topography in our films.
Bound quasiparticles, negatively charged trions and neutral excitons, are associated with the direct optical transitions at the K-points of the Brillouin zone for monolayer MoS$_2$. The change in the carrier concentration, surrounding dielectric cons
tant and defect concentration can modulate the photoluminescence and Raman spectra. Here we show that exposing the monolayer MoS$_2$ in air to a modest laser intensity for a brief period of time enhances simultaneously the photoluminescence (PL) intensity associated with both trions and excitons, together with $sim$ 3 to 5 times increase of the Raman intensity of first and second order modes. The simultaneous increase of PL from trions and excitons cannot be understood based only on known-scenario of depletion of electron concentration in MoS$_2$ by adsorption of O$_2$ and H$_2$O molecules. This is explained by laser induced healing of defect states resulting in reduction of non-radiative Auger processes. This laser healing is corroborated by an observed increase of intensity of both the first order and second order 2LA(M) Raman modes by a factor of $sim$ 3 to 5. The A$_{1g}$ mode hardens by $sim$ 1.4 cm$^{-1}$ whereas the E$^1_{2g}$ mode softens by $sim$ 1 cm$^{-1}$. The second order 2LA(M) Raman mode at $sim$ 440 cm$^{-1}$ shows an increase in wavenumber by $sim$ 8 cm$^{-1}$ with laser exposure. These changes are a combined effect of change in electron concentrations and oxygen-induced lattice displacements.
We discuss here the effect of band nesting and topology on the spectrum of excitons in a single layer of MoS$_2$, a prototype transition metal dichalcogenide material. We solve for the single particle states using the ab initio based tight-binding mo
del containing metal $d$ and sulfur $p$ orbitals. The metal orbitals contribution evolving from $K$ to $Gamma$ points results in conduction-valence band nesting and a set of second minima at $Q$ points in the conduction band. There are three $Q$ minima for each $K$ valley. We accurately solve the Bethe-Salpeter equation including both $K$ and $Q$ points and obtain ground and excited exciton states. We determine the effects of the electron-hole single particle energies including band nesting, direct and exchange screened Coulomb electron-hole interactions and resulting topological magnetic moments on the exciton spectrum. The ability to control different contributions combined with accurate calculations of the ground and excited exciton states allows for the determination of the importance of different contributions and a comparison with effective mass and $kcdot p$ massive Dirac fermion models.
We show that pristine MoS$_2$ single layer (SL) exhibits two bandgaps $E_{gparallel}=1.9$ eV and $E_{gperp}=3.2$ eV for the optical in-plane and out-of-plane susceptibilities $chi_parallel$ and $chi_perp$, respectively. In particular, we show that od
d states bound to vacancy defects (VDs) lead to resonances in $chi_perp$ inside $E_{gperp}$ in MoS$_2$ SL with VDs. We use density functional theory, the tight-binding model, and the Dirac equation to study MoS$_2$ SL with three types of VDs: (i) Mo-vacancy, (ii) S$_2$-vacancy, and (iii) 3$times$MoS$_2$ quantum antidot. The resulting optical spectra identify and characterize the VDs.
Valley pseudospin in two-dimensional (2D) transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) allows optical control of spin-valley polarization and intervalley quantum coherence. Defect states in TMDs give rise to new exciton features and theoretically exhibit
spin-valley polarization; however, experimental achievement of this phenomenon remains challenges. Here, we report unambiguous valley pseudospin of defect-bound localized excitons in CVD-grown monolayer MoS2; enhanced valley Zeeman splitting with an effective g-factor of -6.2 is observed. Our results reveal that all five d-orbitals and the increased effective electron mass contribute to the band shift of defect states, demonstrating a new physics of the magnetic responses of defect-bound localized excitons, strikingly different from that of A excitons. Our work paves the way for the manipulation of the spin-valley degrees of freedom through defects toward valleytronic devices.
