The contributions of the ＇hard gap＇ energy, Coulomb interaction, correlation energy, and exchange interaction to the electrical transport are considered in the universal variable range hopping theoretical model. By fitting the temperature and magnetic field dependence of the experimental sheet resistance to the theoretical model, the spin polarization ratio of electrical carriers near the Fermi level and interactions between electrical carriers can be obtained.展开更多

The results show that the intrinsic MoS2 does not have magnetism initially, but doped with TM (TM=Fe, Co, and Ni) the MoS2 possesses an obvious magnetism distinctly. The magnetic moment mainly comes from unpaired Mo:4d orbitals and the d orbitals of the dopants, as well as the S:3p states. However, the doping system exhibits certain half-metallic properties, so we select N atoms in the V family as a dopant to adjust its half-metal characteristics. The results show that the (Fe, N) co-doped MoS2 can be a satisfactory material for applications in spintronic devices. On this basis, the most stable geometry of the (2Fe-N) co-doped MoS2 system is determined by considering the different configurations of the positions of the two Fe atoms. It is found that the ferromagnetic mechanism of the (2Fe-N) co-doped MoS2 system is caused by the bond spin polarization mechanism of the Fe-Mo-Fe coupling chain. Our results verify that the (Fe, N) co-doped single-layer MoS2 has the conditions required to become a dilute magnetic semiconductor.展开更多
