MoB 2 Driven Metallic Behavior and Interfacial Charge Transport Mechanism in MoS 2/MoB 2 Heterostructure: A First-Principles Study

Abstract We have performed the density functional theory calculations on heterostructure (HS) of MoS 2 and MoB 2 monolayers. The aim of this study is to assess the influence of MoB 2 on electron transport of adjacent MoS 2 layer. In present investigation we predict that the electronic properties of...
