Electronic and optical properties of vacancy-doped WS2 monolayers

Monolayers of tungsten disulfide doped with atomic vacancies have been investigated for the first time by density functional theory calculations. The results reveal that the atomic vacancy defects affect the electronic and optical properties of the tungsten disulfide monolayers. The strongly ionic c...
