Adsorption of Water Molecule in Graphene/MoS2 Heterostructure with Vacancy Defects in Mo Sites by Hari Krishna Neupane, Narayan Prasad Adhikari

“…First-principle calculations based on the spin-polarized density functional theory (DFT) with vdW corrections by DFT-D2 approach have been carried out to study structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of water-adsorbed graphene/MoS2 heterostructures (system-I), and water-adsorbed graphene/MoS2 heterostructures with vacancy defects in Mo sites (systems-II). We consider vacancy defects in different Mo sites such as centre-1Mo atom vacancy defect (system-IIa), left-1Mo atom vacancy defect (system-IIb), and 2Mo atom vacancy defects (system-IIc). …”
