Abstract

Graphene has shown great promise in many electronic devices and systems since it was discovered. However doping control limits its use in devices. For addressing this problem, graphene/MoXY (X/Y=S, Se, Te and X≠Y) heterostructures have been investigated in this work. We analyze electronic and optica...
