Abstract: Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), Janus transition metal dichalcogenides (JTMDCs) and their heterostructures have recently attracted much interest due to their exotic and highly tunable electronic properties. In this talk, I will share our recent studies on structural, vibrational, electronic and optical properties of these materials. First principles calculations reveal that these systems are stable under a wide range of strains from compression to tension.
