Investigation of structural, electronic and optical properties of two-dimensional MoS2-doped-V2O5 composites for photocatalytic application: a density functional theory study

In the present research, the structural, electronic and optical properties of transition metal dichalcogenide-doped transition metal oxides MoS2-doped-V2O5 with various doping concentrations (x = 1–3%) of MoS2 atoms are studied by using first principles calculation. The generalized gradient approx...
