This thesis presents research work on transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), a promising class of 2D materials in the post-graphene era. TMDCs are in the form of X-M-X, where M is a transition metal element from groups 4-7 and group 10 and X is a chalcogen (S, Se or Te). Due to the vast number of...
