molybdenum disulfide ( MoS 2) nanoscale n-channel MOSFETs are studied using a semi-
classical Monte Carlo method. Density functional theory calculations were performed to
parametrize the electronic band structure of MoS 2 subject to tensile and shear strain.
Tensile strain decreases the bandgap, increases the inter-valley band-edge energy
separation between the light-mass K-valleys and heavier-mass Q-valleys, and decreases …
