Abstract
An overview of the physical, structural, electronic, optical, and electrical properties of Transition Metal Dichalcogenides (TMDCs) and their applications are presented in this chapter. In particular, the sulfides and selenides of molybdenum and tungsten, i.e., MoS2, WS2, MoSe2, and WSe2, are considered. The temperature dependence of the energy gap and simulation of the optical properties of these materials on a variety of substrates are emphasized.
