Abstract
First principles calculations based on the density functional theory (DFT) are employed to estimate the electronic structures of bilayer heterostructure of MoS2/WS2. The dependences of the band structures on external electric field and interlayer separation are evaluated. The external electric filed induces a semiconductor-metal transition. At the same time, a larger interlayer separation, corresponding to a weaker interlayer interaction, makes an indirect-direct band gap transition happen for the heterojunction. Our results demonstrate that electronic structure tailoring of two-dimensional layered materials should include both spatial symmetry control and interlayer vdW interactions engineering.
