Abstract
The transition metal dichalcogenides of groups IVB, VB, and VIB exhibit considerable diversity in their physical properties, spanning the fields of metals, semiconductors, insulators, and superconductors [1]. An important feature of these materials is that they crystallize in a quasi two-dimensional type of layered structure which imparts substantial anisotrophy to many of their properties. In addition, the layered structure facilitates the process of intercalation, or insertion of foreign atoms and molecules into these process of intercalation, or insertion of foreign atoms and molecules into these materials, thus allowing a convenient method for altering the structure and electronic behavior.
