Modelling of stacked 2D materials and devices

Tremendous developments in the synthesis and understanding of two-dimensional materials such as graphene, phosphorene, BNand MoS2 have spurred great interest in exploiting their heterostructures in devices. Here, we present a compact review of the modeling and simulation of stacked two-dimensional materials and devices. Particular emphasis is placed on the intriguing phenomena enabled by different stacking geometries and material choices, and the fundamental physical mechanisms behind them, which enable new device concepts and applications to be developed which would have been difficult to achieve with other material platforms.
