Two-dimensional Janus transition-metal dichalcogenides possess an intrinsic Rashba effect, which can be manipulated by charge doping. Electron doping can effectively strengthen the Rashba effect, while hole doping would weaken it.

Two-dimensional (2D) layered materials such as transition-metal dichalcogenides TS[Formula: see text]X[Formula: see text] (T = Mo, W; X = Se, Te) are available in mono and bilayers forms. The Rashba spin splitting is induced by the breaking of inversion symmetry in monolayer. The electronic structure of TS[Formula: see text]X[Formula: see text] is sensitive to an applied electric field. The perpendicular electric field can tune the energy gap. The semiconductor–metal transition appears under the critical electric field in the MoSSe/WSSe heterobilayer, and MoSTe/WSTe heterobilayer exhibits metal character due to spin–orbit coupling. Moreover, the results show that during sodiation/desodiation processes single-phase transition occurs with one one-dimensional (1D) transportation paths of sodium ions in MoS2, suggesting fast diffusion. Our results provide important insights into a wide range of applications of spin-polarized semiconductors and energy storage for transition-metal dichalcogenides TS[Formula: see text]X[Formula: see text].

The scheme illustrates a monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenide on an epsilon-near-zero substrate. The substrate near-zero dielectric constant is used as the enhancement mechanism to maximize the SHG nonlinear effect on monolayer 2D materials.

Abstract The optical properties of monolayer and bilayer transition metal dichalcogenide semiconductors are governed by excitons in different spin and valley configurations, providing versatile aspects for van der Waals heterostructures and devices. Here, we present experimental and theoretical studies of exciton energy splittings in external magnetic field in neutral and charged WSe2 monolayer and bilayer crystals embedded in a field effect device for active doping control. We develop theoretical methods to calculate the exciton g-factors from first principles for all possible spin-valley configurations of excitons in monolayer and bilayer WSe2 including valley-indirect excitons. Our theoretical and experimental findings shed light on some of the characteristic photoluminescence peaks observed for monolayer and bilayer WSe2. In more general terms, the theoretical aspects of our work provide additional means for the characterization of single and few-layer transition metal dichalcogenides, as well as their heterostructures, in the presence of external magnetic fields.
