Comparison of band-fitting and Wannier-based model construction for WSe $_{2}$

James Sifuna, Pablo García-Fernández, George S. Manyali +2

Transition metal dichalcogenide materials $M X_{2} (M = M o, W; X = S, S e)$ are being thoroughly studied due to their novel two-dimensional structure, that is associated with exceptional opti…
