Wang Z.M. MoS2: Materials, Physics, and Devices

Springer, 2014. – 296 p. – ISBN: 3319028499This book reviews the structure and electronic, magnetic, and other properties of various MoS₂ (Molybdenum disulfide) nanostructures, with coverage of synthesis, Valley polarization, spin physics, and other topics. MoS₂ is an important, graphene-like layered nano-material that substantially extends the range of possible nanostructures and devices for nanofabrication. These materials have been widely researched in recent years, and have become an attractive topic for applications such as catalytic materials and devices based on field-effect transistors (FETs) and semiconductors. Chapters from leading scientists worldwide create a bridge between MoS₂ nanomaterials and fundamental physics in order to stimulate readers' interest in the potential of these novel materials for device applications. Since MoS₂ nanostructures are expected to be increasingly important for future developments in energy and other electronic device applications, this book can be recommended for Physics and Materials Science and Engineering departments and as reference for researchers in the field.Progress on the Theoretical Study of Two-Dimensional MoS₂ Monolayer and Nanoribbon
