| contents | Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), like VS2, display unique electronic, magnetic, and optical properties, making them promising for spintronic and optoelectronic applications. Using first-principles calculations based on the Density Functional Theory (DFT), we study the effect of Fe-doping on the electronic and magnetic properties of a VS2 monolayer. The pristine VS2 monolayer has ferromagnetic order and a small energy bandgap. This work aims to comprehensively study the substitution of selected Vanadium atoms in the VS2 monolayer by Iron (Fe) atoms, where the substitution concerns Vanadium atoms at various sites within the 2x2 and 3x3 supercells. This leads to significant modifications of the electronic band structure, magnetic anisotropy energy (MAE), and optical response (e.g., dielectric constant and absorption coefficient). The results provide valuable insights into engineering the VS2 monolayer properties for future applications, ranging from spintronics to cancer therapy in medical science. |
