Band nesting and the optical response of two-dimensional semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides
We have studied the optical conductivity of two-dimensional (2D) semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides using ab initio density functional theory. We find that this class of materials presents large optical response due to the phenomenon of band nesting. The tendency towards band nesting is...
