M. Traving et al., ELECTRONIC-STRUCTURE OF WSE2 - A COMBINED PHOTOEMISSION AND INVERSE-PHOTOEMISSION STUDY, Physical review. B, Condensed matter, 55(16), 1997, pp. 10392-10399
We report on a complete determination of the experimental and theoreti
cal valence- and conduction-band structure of WSe2. The results of com
bined angle-resolved photoemission and inverse photoemission are discu
ssed in the context of fully relativistic linear-muffin-tin-orbital an
d extended linear-augmented-planewave calculations. We measure an indi
rect band gap of 1.2 eV, and find the valence-band maximum to be locat
ed at the center of the Brillouin zone and the conduction-band minimum
at 0.55 Gamma K.
