By means of comprehensive first-principles calculations, we studied the geometric structure, the stability and electronic properties of the new two-dimensional(2D) Janus MoXB2(X=S, Se) monolayers. Our calculations demonstrated that the predicted Janus MoXB2 monolayers are all stable semiconductors with direct band gap. In this paper, we focus on impacts upon the electronic and optical properties of the MoXB2 monolayers under the different biaxial strains. With the compressive stress increases, the MoXB2 monolayers would become indirect band gap semiconductors, and then behave as semimetal. While under tensile strain, MoXB2 still maintain direct band gap. In addition, the optical calculation shows that biaxial strain leads to blue shifts in the optical absorption and reflectivity. The result indicates that MoXB2 may be promised nano candidate materials in optoelectronic devices.

The CBM (VBM) of the heterostructure is mainly contributed by the BAs (arsenene), which will favor the separation of photogenerated electron–hole pairs.
