We present a first principle, theoretical study of MoS2 nanoparticles that provides a unified explanation of measured photoluminescence spectra and recent STM measurements as a function of size. In addition, our calculations suggest ways to engineer the electronic properties of these systems so as to obtain direct band gap 3D layered nanoparticles or Mo doped metallic nanowires. In particular, we show that single sheet MoS2 nanoparticles up to similar to 3.4 nm show no appreciable quantum confinement effects. Instead, their electronic structure is entirely dominated by surface states near the Fermi level. In 3D nanoparticles, we found a strong dependence of their electronic properties on layer stacking and distance, and we suggest that the observed photoluminescence variation as a function of size originates from the number of planes composing the system. The number of these planes and their distance can be tuned to engineer clusters with direct band gaps, at variance with the bulk. Our results also suggest ways to take advantage of surface states to design metallic nanowires with novel catalytic and thermoelectric properties.
