layer materials with semiconducting electronic properties
have attracted much attention as conducting channels in field-effect
transistors (FETs). Here, we investigate the electronic structures
of bilayer MoS2 in a dual-gate FET model using first-principles
total-energy calculations based on density functional theory (DFT).
Our calculations show that selective electron doping occurs in bilayer
MoS2 under a perpendicular electric field owing to a band
offset between the positive and negative-electrode sides of the MoS2 layers. Furthermore, we observe a further partial carrier
distribution in bilayer MoS2 by decreasing the interlayer
interaction owing to a twisted stacking arrangement. It is expected
that the positive-electrode-side layer works as a conducting channel,
and on the other hand, the negative-electrode-side layer works as
a screening layer in bilayer MoS2-FETs.
