Figure 7. (A) The optimized geometries of MoTe2/XS2 (X = Hf, Sn, Zr) heterostructures. Claybank, ultramarine, yellow, blue, cyan, and emerald balls represent Te, Mo, S, Hf, Sn, and Zr atoms, respectively, as labeled in the picture above. Left: the top view of the heterostructures; right: the side view of the heterostructures. (Reproduced with permission[48].

The blue area (positive value) and the yellow area (negative value) represent the accumulation and consumption of electrons, respectively (the inset image shows 3D isosurface of the heterostructure, with the level at 0.0005 e Å−3).
