Spin-Orbit Coupling, Quantum Dots, and Qubits in Monolayer Transition Metal Dichalcogenides

Abstract

Quantum dots in a monolayer transition metal dichalcogenide such as MoS${}_{2}$ hold the promises of low dimensionality and dual electrical and optical functionality. Scientists provide the first and necessary theoretical framework for studying such quantum dots, laying the basis for further theoretical and experimental investigations.
